Images will output artifacts in an `obj` dir at the root of a repository.
To match conditions in rusts CI, also set the environment variable `DEPLOY=1`, e.g.:
```
DEPLOY=1 ./src/ci/docker/run.sh x86_64-gnu
```
**NOTE**: Re-using the same `obj` dir with different docker images with
the same target triple (e.g. `dist-x86_64-linux` and `dist-various-1`)
may result in strange linker errors, due shared library versions differing between platforms.

### Generating a `.config` file
**NOTE:** Existing Dockerfiles can be a good guide for the process and order
of script execution.
If you have a `linux-cross` image lying around you can use that and skip the
next two steps.
- First we spin up a container and copy `build_toolchain_root.sh` into it. All
- First we spin up a container and copy all scripts into it. All
these steps are outside the container:
```
# Note: We use ubuntu:15.10 because that's the "base" of linux-cross Docker
# image
$ docker run -it ubuntu:15.10 bash
# Note: We use ubuntu:16.04 because that's the "base" of linux-cross Docker
# image, or simply run ./src/ci/docker/run.sh once, which will download the correct
# one and you can check it out with `docker images`
$ docker run -it ubuntu:16.04 bash

$ docker ps

cfbec05ed730 ubuntu:16.04 "bash" 16 seconds ago Up 15 seconds drunk_murdock
$ docker cp src/ci/docker/scripts drunk_murdock:/tmp/
```
- Then inside the container we build crosstool-ng by simply calling the bash
script we copied in the previous step:
```
$ bash build_toolchain_root.sh
$ cd /tmp/scripts
# Download packages necessary for building
$ bash ./cross-apt-packages.sh
# Download and build crosstool-ng
$ bash ./crosstool-ng.sh
```
- In case you cant to adjust or start from an existing config, copy that
to the container. `crosstool-ng` will automatically load `./.config` if
present. Otherwise one can use the TUI to load any config-file.
```
$ docker cp arm-linux-gnueabi.config drunk_murdock:/tmp/.config
```
