Building

PC builds (x86) explained:

  This will build an x86 based .ISO for PCs

  Usage: $ bash build-x86.sh options buildVariants blissBranch extraOptions
  Options: -c | --clean : Does make clean && make clobber and resets the efi device tree
    	   -s | --sync: Repo syncs the rom (clears out patches), then reapplies patches to needed repos
	   -p | --patch: Just applies patches to needed repos
	   -r | --proprietary: build needed items from proprietary vendor (non-public)

  BuildVariants:
	android_x86-user : Make user build
	android_x86-userdebug |: Make userdebug build
	android_x86-eng : Make eng build
	android_x86_64-user : Make user build
	android_x86_64-userdebug |: Make userdebug build
	android_x86_64-eng : Make eng build

      BlissBranch: select which bliss branch to sync, default is p9.0

      ExtraOptions:
        	foss : packages microG & FDroid with the build
        	go : packages Gapps Go with the build
        	gapps : packages OpenGapps with the build
        	gms : packages GMS with the build (requires private repo access)
        	none : force all extraOption flags to false. 

 To start, you must first use the -s (--sync) flag, then on following builds, it is not needed. 
 Initial generation of the proprietary files from ChromeOS are also needed on the first build. 
 We are able to use the -r (--proprietary) flag for that. This step needs to be on its own because
 the mounting process requires root permissions, so keep a look out for it asking for your root password. 
  
 First you must sync with the new manifest changes:

    	$ bash build-x86.sh -p (will do initial patching)
  
 Next step is to download the proprietary files from ChromeOS:
  
    	$ mkdir vendor/bliss_priv/proprietary && mkdir vendor/bliss_priv/source	    
    	$ bash build-x86.sh -r android_x86_64-userdebug 
    
 After that, you can build your release file:
  
    	$ bash build-x86.sh android_x86_64-userdebug (to build the userdebug version for x86_64 CPUs)
