Depending on the state of the downloaded DE, you may need to run it twice (once initially, and then again after re-entering the environment). Make sure to keep the enviroment up-to-date by re-running the command periodically. 4) Once the environment is fully updated, **cd** into your cloned **86box\src** directory. 5) Run **make -j*N* -fmakefile.mingw** to start the actual compilation process. Substitute *N* with the number of threads you want to use for the compilation process. The optimal number depends entirely on your processor, and it is up to you to determine the optimal number. A good starting point is the total number of threads (AKA Logical Processors) you have available. -6) If the compilation succeeded (which it almost always should), you will find 86box.exe in the src directory. -7) In order to test your fresh build, replace the 86box.exe in your current 86box enviroment with your freshly built one. If you do not have a pre-existing 86box environment, download the latest successful build from http://ci.86box.net, and the ROM set from http://tinyurl.com/roms2017. +6) If the compilation succeeded (which it almost always should), you will find **86Box.exe** in the src directory. +7) In order to test your fresh build, replace the **86Box.exe** in your current 86Box enviroment with your freshly built one.
