Build Steps

There are several build steps to OpenXT.

Items with a * are required for a minimum build

initramfs* - The initial ram file system of OpenXT. This contains all the device drivers necessary to mount the actual file system. stubinitramfs* - The initramfs of the stub domains in which VMs run. dom0* - OpenXT control domain uivm* - OpenXT service VM that runs the user interface ndvm* - OpenXT service VM that runs the networking domain syncvm* - OpenXT synchronizer service VM, responsible for remote image/policy management syncui - OpenXT synchronizer UI installer* - OpenXT installation installer2* - OpenXT installer program ship* - Pull everything together and create the ISOs and other packages copy - Copy the build out to a central location (runs by default if no steps are specified, but not necessary)

To create a minimum build the easiest way to specify the steps across multiple builds is to use the line below in your .config file. STEPS="initramfs,stubinitramfs,dom0,uivm,ndvm,syncvm,installer,installer2,ship"
