[maemo-developers] [maemo-developers] VMWare Appliance for MAEMO 2.0?

[From: Kon Wilms]

The 3.0 appliance has the scratchbox as a separate vmdk drive image which is
mounted at boot. It is pretty easy to swap this out with a 2.0 vmdk image.
If people want 2.0 I can certainly add it. I still have a 770 and a few apps
recompiled for the 770 as it is.

As for multiple versions.. I don't see the point in reinventing the wheel.
Just add to the existing device - it has been customized beyond just the SDK
installation, and regardless I am offering my time gratis.

VMWare would make this task a lot easier if they expanded the capability of
their appliance hosting portal by allowing selections for multiple downloads
ala configurations for a single appliance. Of course, hosting of the images
would help as well :-)

Cheers
Kon
