Arnout Vandecappelle e146d82b96 dropbear: add help text about key creation
Commit e7d04dd2d replaced /etc/dropbear with a symlink to /var/run and
updated the start scripts to replace it with a real directory, so the
keys would be persistent. However, it turns out that this is pretty
confusing even for expert users, who don't know how to make the keys
really persistent now.

Update the help text explaining what the issue is, and telling the user
to replace the /etc/dropbear symlink with a symlink to a persistent
directory. Also mention the possiblity of unionfs.

Buildroot is a simple, efficient and easy-to-use tool to generate embedded
Linux systems through cross-compilation.

The documentation can be found in docs/manual. You can generate a text
document with 'make manual-text' and read output/docs/manual/manual.text.
Online documentation can be found at http://buildroot.org/docs.html

To build and use the buildroot stuff, do the following:

1) run 'make menuconfig'
2) select the target architecture and the packages you wish to compile
3) run 'make'
4) wait while it compiles
5) find the kernel, bootloader, root filesystem, etc. in output/images

You do not need to be root to build or run buildroot.  Have fun!

Buildroot comes with a basic configuration for a number of boards. Run
'make list-defconfigs' to view the list of provided configurations.

Please feed suggestions, bug reports, insults, and bribes back to the
buildroot mailing list: buildroot@buildroot.org
You can also find us on #buildroot on Freenode IRC.
