One could add the note found in the Chromium OS Developer Guide to the Quick Start Guide on not running as root: "NOTE: Do not run any of the commands listed in this document as root – the commands themselves will run sudo to get root access when needed."

Could be added here to the Quick Start Guide.

"""
2. You must also install depot_tools. This step is required so that you can use the repo command to get/sync the source code.
3. You must also tweak your sudoers configuration. This is required for using cros_sdk.

NOTE: Do not run any of the commands listed in this document as root – the commands themselves will run sudo to get root access when needed.
