[M3devel] How to compile system from (modified) source?

[Jay K]

apt-get install unixodbc
etc.
?
 
./do-cm3-std.sh buildship
 
./do-pkg.sh buildship list of packages
 
 
The scripts just cd around and run cm3 -build and/or cm3 -ship and/or other commands.
 
Do ./do-cm3-std.sh realclean to remove the "local" build you did.
