[Meaty-Skeleton] Why create seperate ios directory?

Post by ParadoxZero »

I am a newbie, so was going through meaty-skeleton.

I am wondering, why not just make the iso from sysroot, instead of copying the kernel to a new directory (isodir).

Changing the script to use sysroot works without any issue.

I was wondering about the reason behind having a seperate isodir.

the sysroot directory is for building the os. the isodir only features a boot directory making it smaller. you don't need all of the headers in your cdrom
the boot directory is the important one. the rest doesn't matter (for now)
