Description Shane Wang 2011-12-28 17:28:38 UTC 
These are comments from Richard. We need to implement those 4 options:

I think rather than drop the user straight to this, we should give them
a list of more friendly options:

a) Build a customised image based on packages already built 
   (unavailable on a fresh build)
b) Build an image directly with no customisation <select image>
   (this will skip the recipes selection dialog and the packages 
   selection)
c) Build an image directly but with customisation <select image>
   (this will skip the recipes selection dialog)
d) Allow selection of recipes to build (proceeds to existing dialog)
Comment 1 Shane Wang 2011-12-28 17:29:31 UTC 
b, c, d) are implemented.

a) is WIP. Will put it in M3.
Comment 2 Jiajun Xu 2012-03-13 14:49:11 UTC 
In 1.2 M3 RC1 testing, QA has verified that HOB supports the 4 use cases.
