 It does not work if you just download the `.zip` from GitHub because we use link:.gitmodules[Git submodules], you must clone this repo. `./configure` then fetches only the required submodules for you.
 
-QEMU opens up and you can start playing with the kernel modules inside the simulated system: TODO fix path to 9p:
+The order of build commands matters:
+
+* `./build-linux` must come before `./build-modules` because the kernel modules depend on the Linux kernel build. We could lessen this need by calling `make modules_prepare` on the kernel tree, which does not require a full build, but this is not currently done
+* `./build-modules` and `./build-userland` must come before `./build-buildroot` because generate files that will be placed in the root filesystem. If you don't call them before, the generated files will not be in the root filesystem.
+* `build-qemu` must come before `./build-buildroot` because it builds the `qemu-img` tool that we use to convert the raw disk image into link:https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Qcow[qcow2] format that QEMU boots from in our setup
+
+If you mess up the order, just build things again in the right order and you will be fine.
