This is the Igloo hwpack creation tool

It is basically a Makefile to automate hwpack and image creation. Included
is also the "official" Igloo Community manifest.

Usage
======

The simplest form of use is to run

 $ make

This will create a hwpack based on igloo.manifest and an image using the 
hwpack and the default rootfs. The Makefile will error out if either the 
required tools or the rootfs is not present.

You can find configuration options in the toplevel Makefile. Don't 
change those by editing though, it'll only cause trouble for updating 
(unless you commit your changes in a branch etc).

Instead you can override them from the command line, for example:

 $ make VERSION=small MANIFEST=mini.manifest ROOTFS=nano.tar.gz IMAGE_SIZE=1G
  
to create a hypotethical tiny image based on a custom manifest.

You can also build just the hwpack by running

 $ make hwpack

in case you don't need the image.
