[yocto] [PATCH 6/6] meta-crownbay: update README with new build instructions.

Wed Jun 1 13:26:51 PDT 2011

Hi Tom,

If you haven't already, I would suggest running the README changes past
Scott R, even if you commit this first. Getting Scott involved should
help keep our documentation precise, correct from a tech writing point
of view, as well as help keep it consistent throughout the project.
