RTEMS 5 how to run "hello" example

Thank you very much for your reply! I'm still confused about all the
prefixes and PATHs. In the README.waf it is said to run

$ waf configure --rtems=$HOME/Development/rtems/5 \
--rtems-tools=$HOME/Development/rtems/5 \
--rtems-bsps=sparc/erc32

where $HOME/Development/rtems/build/5 is the path to tools and
$HOME/Development/rtems/build/5 is the path to RTEMS Board Support Packages.

I followed this tutorial
https://medium.com/@mritunjaysharma394/installing-rtems-ecosystem-and-building-your-first-bsp-993d1cf38902
installing RTEMS and building BSP. So in my case I built the tool suit
in development/rtems/src/rsb/rtems


$ ../source-builder/sb-set-builder --prefix=$HOME/development/rtems/5
5/rtems-sparc

So the path to tools development/rtems/src/rsb/rtems, is it right? And I'm
not sure what is a path to RTEMS Board Support Packages.

Or do I need to proceed as in this tutorial https://docs.rtems.org/branches/master/user/start/app.html with every example's directory? I would really appreciate some step-by-step tutorial or instructions as I'm totally frustrated right now and don't understand what to do.
