Description
Hello, I get an error when trying to install bootimage, this is the output after running the install command:
Updating crates.io index
Installing bootimage v0.9.0
error: failed to compile bootimage v0.9.0, intermediate artifacts can be found at C:\Users\(username)\AppData\Local\Temp\cargo-install2oyY9G
Caused by:
-Zbuild-std requires --target
I tried passing in different targets but I don't get it to work, any help on this?
