VER 0.1
Very first .ks that we made creates ISO the size of 1,124,073,472 bytes. So we are beyond the CD disk and moving to DVD.
Right now working on how to add custom files and patch existing. Radion
VER 0.2
The size is now 1,071,644,672 bytes. Few more packages is pulled out. Eclipse is still working ;-)
Next version trying to autostart Eclipse with every boot and remove more stuff. Radion
VER 0.3
Size decreased again 1,062,207,488 bytes! 1265 Packages are installed so far. Eclipse is auto-starting. Radion
VER 0.4
Working on post script that will install ADT plugin.
Found the way to include foreign files into the spin build. Now working on decreasing size of the image. Radion
VER 0.5
KS file changed drastically and its now has better configuration flexibility. Its also has a lot of errors :-(
I am trying to decrease size of the Andora to fit onto the CD, hard...
Lots of debugging is ahead to fix the KS. Radion
VER 0.6
It's 1 am, still debugging the KS and trying to decrease image size. Its really hard to fit on CD with Eclipse and Platform tools.
I don't think it's possible to fit everything on the CD. I am afraid we are gonna have to use DVD.
I tried fedora-live-mini.ks which gives me an image of about 120MB but its not workable, system just stalls on black screen. Radion
----
*Install ADT
*Change Eclipse plugin config file (hard)
*include SDK
*Include SDK Platforms
*What platforms should be included?
----
Just a side note: Andora can be split into 2 versions.
*"Andora Light" - has SDK and eclipse installed and configured but doesn't have SDK downloaded onto the disk. That way Andora can fir on CD. Such a distribution is good when user just wants to install Andora onto USB or HDD and then download the LATEST sdk files.
*"Andora Live" - Has SDK downloaded and its the original "Pop the disk in and program" concept. The problem with it that SDK is more than one gb of the size. With every update we will have to release new image with that gig updated. Plus what if user want other versions of API that Version 2 disk doesn't have predownloaded. Radion
