PPCKitchin ROM Cooking help

[focusedonsound]

I am search of a bit of help.

I have read all of the instructions on cooking my own ROM and have downloaded PPCKitchin's BuildOS.

I would like to cook my own simple ROM. I would like to cook a very simple ROM which contains all of the tools I need.

My question is when picking all of the options for my ROM in Build OS are there "Essential" options I MUST pick for basic phone operation VS. options I will want to pick.

Thanks in advance
