5 minutes of prepit
1 hour of search
2 minutes delete

Ok, read the ReadMe.doc out of OMJ's kitchen. In his forum located here:

Yes, I downloaded a rom and didn't like what it came with, example was PocketCm. So i wanted to remove it, but its not in the add and remove window. So i figures dumping the rom and deleting it manually and rebilding the rom and flashing should do it. Problem is .. I have gona as far as using BuildOS and thats it. heheh But i will read your instructions...

You can just disable stuff you dont want. With a few regedits and deleting a few .lnks you will never even know it is there.

Programs already in the rom won't show up in buildos. To delete these you have to delete the OEM in either the ..\Sys directory or in the ..\OEM directory. Then buildos and buildit. The oem is a folder that will be named like oem_pocketcm or pocketcm, delete the whole folder usually...

I was amazed at how intact the roms are after a prepit. Usually the oems may get transfered to the SYS folder, but the oems usually survive intact.

ok, one more stupid question. How do you extract the kitchen. Instruction 1 says extract the kitchen of your choice. But how do you extract it. Better yet .. just tell me the name of the tool that does the extraction.

To extract the kitchen, put it in it's directory and run the exe. This will create all your directories for you. Then once you do the same with your rom, copy the *.nbh to your kitchen directory. Then run prepit.bat, it will break it down to something the kitchen can work with. Delete or add the oem's you want. Run Buildos.exe, buildit.bat and flash!

Carefull what you delete though...
In the Kitchen world OEM's are the same as cab's...
If you don't recognize a directory in \sys as something you've seen as a cab, don't delete it!

OEMs that go to the sys folder after running prepit have a dsm made for them, just clear the dsm if you want them to stay in OEM after prepit

do you mean if i delete the dsm file it will show up in buildos?

no i mean if you clear the dsm, if you build the rom, then prepit later, instead of the files going to sys, they go to oem

All the roms that I have 'reverse engineered' with the kitchen, the oem folders have the exact same files as ones download in the ppcgeek_oem pack. Any that I add show up in buildos, but not the ones already there. I don't know what happens if you delete the oem folder, then add it back in to the OEM folder. I'm sorta tired of flashing twice a day lately... :)
