OK. I'm trying to build
      Sculpt. I'm a naive newb, so I appreciate your patience as I come
      up to speed.
      
      Below are the details of my exploration into this new world. I've
      made progress through trial and error, but I've hit the following
      show stopper (I can't riddle out how to get around it). I
      definitely don't know the environment well enough yet:
    
    make -C build/x86_64 run/sculpt KERNEL=nova
        BOARD=pc
        
        ----------
        Error: recipe for 'pkg/bsd_audio_drv' not found - unable to
        guess version
        make: *** [Makefile:431: run/sculpt] Error 1
        make: Leaving directory '/home/wsenn/genode/build/x86_64'
        ----------
        
        I've searched and seen something about audio and VM not being
        supported, which is fine by me. I don't need audio in the VM,
        I'm just trying to convince myself that I can build an ISO :).
        
        
        Based on correspondence with Norman, I'm starting with Build a
        Bootable Image.
        
        My dev/test setup:
        2012 Macbook Pro running Mojave 10.14.6, 16GB RAM, i7 core 2.6
        ghz
        Virtualbox 6.1.40 running Debian 11.6 "Bullseye" w/guest
        additions enabled for sharing and clipboard with my Mac
        
        Below is the process I followed, in detail (it did take me a bit
        to find the recommended setup - expect et al, but when I did, I
        just installed everything in that list). Feel free
          to skip - it's long...
