+Creating a Release
+------------------
 
 1. Push the changes or do a pull request, and wait for the CI workflow to
    complete.
 
    The build can be tested by downloading the GitHub artifacts.
-     1. Go to the [lowrisc-toolchains Actions page](https://github.com/lowRISC/lowrisc-toolchains/actions).

-How to install pre-built toolchain
-------------------------------------
-1. Download a tar.gz file from release page.
-2. Decompress files to ~/.local
-```
-  tar -xf  <location of your tar.gz> --strip-components=1 -C ~/.local
-```
-3. Now you should be able to compile software with lowrisc-toolchain.
+
+Manual Installation
+-------------------
+
+1. Download a release archive matching your host architecture and target system from the
+   [Github releases](https://github.com/lowRISC/lowrisc-toolchains/releases).
+
+2. Extract the archive:
+
+   ```sh
+   xzcat <path to the downloaded archive> | tar -xvf -
+   ```
+
+3. You should now be able to use the toolchain. You may optionally add the `bin` subfolder
+   to your `PATH` to use the binaries from anywhere.
+
+Opentitan Bazel Integration
+---------------------------
+
+The Ibex toolchain artifacts are consumed by Bazel for building Opentitan software.
+For development and testing purposes, you may override the toolchain used with a local build
+instead of a released version.
+
+In the following steps, `OPENTITAN` denotes the path to your Opentitan checkout, and
+`TOOLCHAIN` denotes the path to the toolchain you wish to override with
+(if you have a locally built toolchain, this should be the `dist` folder).
+
+1. Create an empty `REPO.bazel` file in the toolchain folder.
+
+   ```sh
+   touch $TOOLCHAIN/REPO.bazel
+   ```
+
+2. Create a symbolic link called `BUILD` in the toolchain folder, pointing to the toolchain's
+   build file in the Opentitan checkout.
+
+   ```sh
+   ln -s $OPENTITAN/third_party/lowrisc/BUILD.lowrisc_rv32imcb_toolchain.bazel $TOOLCHAIN/BUILD
+   ```
+
+3. Override the repository in your Bazel commands.
+
+   ```sh
+   bazel --override_repository=+lowrisc_rv32imcb_toolchain+lowrisc_rv32imcb_toolchain=$TOOLCHAIN ...
+   ```
+
+   Repeatedly specifying the flag can be tedious, so to override the repository by default for all
+   commands, create a `.bazelrc-site` file in your Opentitan checkout containing the following:
+
+   ```
+   common --override_repository=+lowrisc_rv32imcb_toolchain+lowrisc_rv32imcb_toolchain=<path to your toolchain>
+   ```
