+# 1. Setting up the build system
+
+Running the following commands will setup the build system and will
+enable us to build recipes & images for any of the supported AMD BSPs:
+
+```sh
+gitclonecheckout() {
+  REPO="$1"; NAME="$2"; HASH="$3"
+
+  git clone --single-branch --branch "${YOCTO_BRANCH}" "${REPO}" "${NAME}"
+  cd "${NAME}"
+  git checkout --quiet "${HASH}"
+  cd ..
+}
+
+YOCTO_BRANCH="warrior"
+
+gitclonecheckout "git://git.yoctoproject.org/poky" "poky-amd" "6d2e12e79211b31cdf5ea824fb9a8be54ba9a9eb"
