 To build an application with this project we use CMake. This repo provides a series of CMake helper functions (found in `camkes_vm_helpers.cmake`) to assit you with defining your CAmkES VM application. Importing this file into your applications CMake configuration gives you access to the following helper functions:
 
 - `DeclareCAmkESVM(init_component [SOURCES INCLUDES LIBS LD_FLAGS C_FLAGS])`: Function for declaring a CAmkESVM. This is called for each Init component in the defined in the applications `.camkes` file. The user can also pass in extra compilation sources, includes, libs and flags to be compiled with the component through additional arguments (`SOURCES`, `INCLUDES`, `LIBS`, `LD_FLAGS` and `C_FLAGS`)
-- `DeclareCAmkESVMRootServer(camkes_config)`: Declares the CAmkESVM root server. This function takes the applications `.camkes` file as an argument (`camkes_config`).
 - `DefineCAmkESVMFileServer([TYPE <type>] [INSTANCE <name>] [FILES <item>[ <item>[...]] [DEPENDS <dep>[ <dep>[...]])`: Function for explicitly creating a file server with the given files. This takes into account any files that have been added before via calls to `AddToFileServer()`. This is called internally from `DeclareCAmkESVMRootServer()`.
 - `DecompressLinuxKernel(decompress_target decompressed_kernel_image compressed_kernel_image [DEPENDS])`: Function for decompressing/extracting a vmlinux file from a given kernel image. The caller specifies a target name (`decompress_target`) for decompressing the kernel, the kernel image to decompress (`compressed_kernel_image`) and additional dependencies to the compressed image through the optional `DEPENDS` parameter. The location of the decompressed image is populated in the `decompressed_kernel_image` parameter passed by the caller.
+- `DeclareCAmkESRootserver()`. Declare the the CAmkES Root Server that sets up the system.
