Brew installs luarocks as part of the lua package.
```
#run this before the luarocks install steps above
brew install lua
brew install sdl2
```
At this point, follow the luarock steps above. Then build luaffi as instructed. Then:
```
#at the time of this writing, the path is for version 5.2

cd src/
lua boot.lua

If you want to use a custom path (for example, for running multiple machines with unique filesystems) you can specify the machine path as an argument to boot.lua.
```
cd src/
lua boot.lua /path/to/my/emulated/machine_a
