To solve the problem of not finding the linker - I needed to set the CROSS_COMPILE environment variable

using these bash commands.

> CROSS_COMPILE=nios2-elf-

> export CROSS_COMPILE

Then run make and the build completed with no errors.

Now, I need to try to load and test on my nios2 hardware.

THIS WAS documented in the README file starting at line 4929. So I deserve a

"RTFM idiot". BTW, the README file has 6515 lines.
