    LiteX/Vexriscv netboot on ECP5-5G Versa Dev Board

Firstly, please connect your board to your computer with a network cable.
Even though most of modern ethernet cards supports direct connection between each other,
if you're not sure about whether you need a crossover cable,
you can hook your computer and the dev board to an inexpensive switch like the following picture - -

#!/bin/sh

# Since we want to create a exact sandbox of host,
# choose root to be the lower directory.

container_dir=$(mktemp -d --tmpdir=$HOME)
printf '%s ...\n' "Creating container directory: $container_dir"

original_username=$(whoami)
	#!/bin/sh

	# Since we want to create a exact sandbox of host,
	# choose root to be the lower directory.

	container_dir=$(mktemp -d --tmpdir=$HOME)
	printf '%s ...\n' "Creating container directory: $container_dir"
