#9 Cleanup buildtool/tools/ (especially buildtool/tools/image/) directories

Milestone: Bering-uClibc 5.1.0

Status: new

Owner: david M brooke

Labels: None

Resolution:

Component: Buildtool

Priority: minor

Version: 4.0-beta1

Type: task

Updated: 2012-05-12

Created: 2010-11-27

Creator: david M brooke

Private: No

With the introduction of buildimage.pl there is a lot of redundant content in the buildtool/tools/image/ directory.

Propose to delete:

tools/image/fd/
tools/image/iso/
tools/image/readme
tools/image/syslinux.dpy

Can probably also get rid of:

tools/createimage.sh
tools/geniso.sh (maybe...)

Would be good to add some content to the Wiki to document those files / directories which remain.

Most important are currently
tools/image/fd/
tools/image/iso/
cause the directories can be removed as well (in the bering-uclibc4 sources!)
Mike will do that in one step with the others mentioned on leaf-devel. Pls keep him informed.

The files can be done later (forgot where we use readme :) syslinux.dpy seems to have been moved to the subdirs for buildimage.pl, createimage.sh is replaced by buildimage.pl)...

tools/image/fd/ and tools/image/iso/ are now removed from git repository.

Created new Wiki page in Developer Guide (Appendix 3) to explain purpose of remaining files.

Once I have documented the files we are using I will delete the remainder.
