Building the libraries

Configuring ScummVM
Edit the makefile in backends/dc to point to your libronin path, as well as your path to the sh-elf cross-compiler.
Compiling ScummVM
run make dist
For serial/IP upload, remove the "BUILD_PLUGINS" line from the makefile and just run `make', to get a static binary with the name `scummvm.elf'.
