ext: Update ext/sst/INSTALL.md
Currently, the installation instructions are for installing
SST-core and SST-elements version 11.0.0. This change updates
instructions to the current SST-core and SST-element version,
11.1.0.
This change also reflects that manually downloading the
`bbl-busybox-boot-exit` is no longer necessary as the example
gem5 config will download automatically.

### Running an example simulation
-Downloading the built bootloader containing a Linux Kernel and a workload,
-
-```sh
-wget http://dist.gem5.org/dist/develop/misc/riscv/bbl-busybox-boot-exit
-```
-
Running the simulation
```sh
sst --add-lib-path=./ sst/example.py
```
-`bbl-busybox-boot-exit` contains an m5 binary, and `m5 exit` will be called
-upon the booting process reaching the early userspace.
+The example SST system configuration will instantiate the gem5 system
+as specified in the gem5 system configuration located at
+`gem5/configs/example/sst/riscv_fs.py`. This configuration will download
+the `bbl-busybox-boot-exit` resource, which contains an m5 binary, and
+`m5 exit` will be called upon the booting process reaching the early userspace.
More information about building a bootloader containing a Linux Kernel and a
customized workload is available at
