    labs/sysdev-tinysystem: don't tell people to copy kernel sources
    
    Copying kernel sources from the sysdev/kernel directory to the
    sysdev/tinysystem directory is useless, and takes an awful amount of
    time, since the kernel compilation starts again from scratch. Tell
    people to re-use the kernel sources from sysdev/kernel instead, even
    if it breaks slightly the clean separation of things done for each
    lab.
