Hi Again, One dumb question. I was just doing some reading and did not see any type of information on a Makefile or similar. I see that the xml file " https://hipster.openindiana.org/distro_const/slim_cd_x86.xml"; can be use as the manifest but from which github repository does it all start? I want to read over the steps that are used through the entire process.
