 For example, if the target machine has a 64-bit ARM CPU and is running Alpine Linux,
 use the following flags:
 
 ```sh
-npm install --arch=arm64 --platform=linuxmusl sharp
+npm install --arch=arm64 --platform=linux --libc=musl sharp

+If the current machine is Alpine Linux and the target machine is Debian Linux on x64 cpu,
