Re: [Xen-devel] [PATCH] trivial README file changes!

The following statement from the README file indicates that "ARCH=xen'
must be specified while building the kernel. But the example did not use
'ARCH=xen' while building the kernel. I could change "make dist" to
"make ARCH=xen dist", but I chose to add an extra line. Is this
statement from the README file really true?

"Include the ARCH=xen directive for all make commands when building the
kernels."
