[edit] Wish List
- How are .pyc files in builds created? Will they be regenerated automatically if I change a .py file and delete the .pyc file?--Mikus Grinbergs 2008-5-14 http://lists.laptop.org/pipermail/sugar/2008-May/005696.html
[edit] Making builds
Our documentation on how to make your own build is pretty spartan right now. Reading
- OS images to understand the end result, then read
- Building custom images
- Puritan
is a good start. Olpc-update and Clean-install procedure explain how to update your XO to your custom build, you will first need a Developer key.
Try the process out and help us document it better!
