How to add more software to my system? How to boot on hardware?

The tutorial is really nice and kept quite simple (I don't know if it is too simple for beginners starting from Ubuntu). It definitely is a good guide for people who already know a thing or two about Linux (I might be able to use it, however I run Gentoo on my Desktop ;P), so thank you a lot for putting your time into writing it.
There is, however, one thing which I am missing: How do I boot my system and then install new software? You are missing that part completely. You should add a little guide detailing how to add gcc or Clang and git to the system, so that source code can be fetched and compiled.
Also a little guide on how to prepare that system for installation on hardware would be nice ;)
I thought about adding a part about installing new software. But I'm not sure if I should explain how to build a toolchain for the system, which is a rather long and tedious process. Or how to use the toolchain available on your current system to build the software, a bit similar in the way cross-compilation is done, which is simpler.
Installation on hardware should be trivial I think, you could substitute the disk image for an actual disk. Or when you're done just dd if=image of=/dev/actualdisk bs=1M. But you're right I didn't really mention anything about that. Maybe I should add that somewhere too.

Yes please :)
hahaha I was going to create this issue too :P ahaha
good job @MichielDerhaeg !! thanks 4 this tuto!
Any news on this? I would be interested on how one might compile a toolchain for it as i am hoping toget x start to work with ti to add a gui.
