Research direction

Start with the repository's drivers/gpu/drm directory and the reported build sequence: make menuconfig, make prepare, and make M=drivers/gpu/drm. Determine where the MI300 driver and admkcl files are expected to be built, then document the supported build steps and expected output for Ubuntu 24.04.
