### Step 3 - Build the coreboot toolchain
-Please note that this can take a significant amount of time.
+Please note that this can take a significant amount of time. Use `CPUS=` to

- $ make crossgcc-i386 CPUS=$(nproc)
+This will list toolchain options and supported architectures:
+
+ $ make help_toolchain
+
+Here are some examples:
+
+ $ make crossgcc-i386 CPUS=$(nproc) # build i386 toolchain
+ $ make crossgcc-aarch64 CPUS=$(nproc) # build Aarch64 toolchain
+ $ make crossgcc-riscv CPUS=$(nproc) # build RISC-V toolchain
+
+Note that the i386 toolchain is currently used for all x86 platforms, including
+x86_64.
Also note that you can possibly use your system toolchain, but the results are
not reproducible, and may have issues, so this is not recommended. See step 5
