Re: Packaging OEM's to save space and manage different projects

Moving from dogguy's kitchen I had one major challenge. At any one time I had 8-15 kitchen's on my hard drive. Different projects such as, stock roms for helping folks, other chef's roms so I could help them, and different roms I was working on. So I needed a way if I was going to switch to also have that flexibility. I couldn't have just one place (USER_OEM) to put a variety of OEM's and keep my sanity... It's actually quite easy, here is what I did to include all my OEM_MegaPacks into my rom:

1. Archive your OEM's into an archive with a unique name. I chose USER_megapack.rar

2. In the ppckitchen install directory make a directory called "USER_OEM2" and copy your new USER_megapack.rar into it.

3. Edit your selections.txt and include that enrty. Here is a basic build and I have highlighted my entry in yellow. I add my entries right after PPCGeeks_OEM.rar. (and don't forget the ":" to indicate a .rar archive!!)

Code:
 
SelectionsVersion=.90.04
KitchenDir=Kitchens\Vogue_Core.rar:;
ModuleDir=kitchens\SYS_20273_QVGA.rar:
ModuleDir=kitchens\Generic_OEM.rar:
ModuleDir=kitchens\Drivers_Vogue.rar:
ModuleDir=kitchens\Carriers_Vogue.rar:
ModuleDir=kitchens\000_Shareware.rar:
ModuleDir=kitchens\PPCGeeks_OEM.rar:
ModuleDir=USER_OEM2\USER_megapack.rar:
ModuleDir=USER_OEM
OutputDir=kitchens\RUU
.
.
.
4. Now, restart buildos and it will find your entries!

I chose the directory USER_OEM2 just to limit the clutter in the other ppckitchen directorys, but keep it in the root directory where you installed BuildOS originally.
Way to much work for me. Why are you going to the trouble to .rar it up for your own use?
