hey. i'm not quite sure i understand what you're doing. and i fully intend to make the README file clearer (after having read your comments).... but basically you don't need to build anything. i already built it for you just download recovery.img from the "releases" link, and reboot your device in fastboot mode and then flash the recovery partition. first you should probably enable the secret "developer settings" (to enable adb) if you haven't done that already.

something like this:

tolino is on, plugged in to usb.
reboot in fastboot mode)
Code:
adb reboot bootloader
at this point it will appear to be "off" but it's not. check to see if it's in fastboot mode: (you should see something like "Android Fastboot Android Fastboot")

Code:
fastboot devices
make sure recovery.img is in your current directory and run the following to actually flash twrp to recovery
(there should be some output saying it's flashing it. takes about 5 seconds)

Code:
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
reboot to normal system:
Code:
fastboot reboot
wait until device has started up and run the following to start twrp
Code:
adb reboot recovery
FWIW fastboot reboot recovery doesn't seem to work... there was something in some forum about long-pressing the power button (while unplugged) to enter recovery mode but i haven't tried that yet

let me know if the above is descriptive enough and i'll update the README accordingly
