Hi Tim, Thanks for answering my post. I have been reading a lot of the documentation and will do some more reading over the next couple of days in preparations.
Although I am still not sure where the main build branch is to create the LiveCD of OI (Hypster), it seems that these are the important locations: https://github.com/OpenIndiana https://github.com/OpenIndiana/oi-userland https://github.com/OpenIndiana/slim_source My next steps, I am guessing, will be to install OI on some native hardware so that I will have a build environment in OI to build OI LiveCD and then I will try to do a basic complete build without modifying anything. If that goes well then I can investigate taking out packages from the LiveCD. I would like to see how small I can make the actual LiveCD with GUI.
