Step one: Installing the JAVA JDK, Cygwin and Setting up the Kitchen.
*Before you do anything install the java jdk*
INSTRUCTIONS
01. Download and extract the cygwin_packages.zip
02. Run the set up(make sure there is no previous cygwin installation)
NOTE: INSTALL CYGWIN IN ROOT DISK LIKE C:\
01. Follow the kitchen read me txt!!!
02. local package directory *must* be the path to the cygwin_packages folder that you just extracted
03. when it shows all the package names, go to the top and select "all default" until it changes to
"all install" (you must click on the arrows)
04. Download the kitchen from above. Then, extract the kitchen's .zip file to a folder under your
home account. Rename the dsixda-android-kitchen-*** folder to just "kitchen". In Cygwin,
this folder would depend on what was set for your Cygwin install directory, e.g.
C:\cygwin\home\John\kitchen
NOTE!! If your user folder contains spaces (e.g. C:\cygwin\home\John Smith\kitchen), then the
kitchen will not function properly. Instead, copy it under C:\cygwin\home\kitchen.
05. Now your ready to run the kitchen type:
those who have their kitchen like this C:\cygwin\home\John\kitchen use these commands given below.
cd kitchen(enter)
./menu(enter)
those who have their kitchen like this C:\cygwin\home\kitchen use these commands given below.
cd ../kitchen(enter)
./menu(enter)
