-# Phyllome OS
+# Kickstart Phyllome OS
 
-Phyllome OS is a [Fedora Remix](https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Remix) designed to leverage [hardware-assisted virtualization](https://wiki.phyllo.me/virt/lexicon#hardware-assisted-virtualization) and [paravirtualization](https://wiki.phyllo.me/virt/lexicon#paravirtualization) to make it easier to run virtualized operating systems locally.
+[Phyllome OS](https://wiki.phyllo.me/phyllomeos/context) uses the [kickstart installation method](https://pykickstart.readthedocs.io/en/latest/kickstart-docs.html#chapter-1-introduction) to deploy itself to a specific target computer or virtual machine by means of kickstart files.
 
-Phyllome OS uses the [automated kickstart installation](https://pykickstart.readthedocs.io/en/latest/kickstart-docs.html#chapter-1-introduction) method to deploy itself to a specific target computer or virtual machine.
+Provided that some dependencies are met (`libvirt` is running on your computer, QEMU is installed, etc), one could run the following script to deploy virtual machines, including Phyllome OS itself.
 
-> Phyllome OS is in its ***alpha*** stage of development. Expect bugs and disappointment
-
-## The content of this repository
-
-Each version of Phyllome OS is like a `dish` that is based on a `recipe` that lists `ingredients`, or basic building blocks for assembling Phyllome OS and other derivatives.

+Each ingredient represents a feature or a set of integrated features, such as a specific Desktop Environment or a storage configuration. 
+    - Ingredients prefixed with *live* such as `live-core.cfg` are to be used with live editions only
+    - *core* ingredients are meant be used in all their respective recipes, *base* ingredients, recommended but optional, and extra provides more stuff (sic)
 
 ## Development
 
-Let's assume you wish to add [Luanti](https://www.luanti.org/), a free and open-source sandbox video game engine, as an ingredient to a dish.
+Using a pull request, you can suggest a modification to an existing ingredient or create a new ingredient from scratch.
 
-* Clone this repository and change directory:
+### Requirements
+
+- `qemu`
+- `libvirt`
+- `virt-install`
+- `pykickstart`
+
+### Example 1: add a new package and include it into a recipe
+
+- Add [Luanti](https://www.luanti.org/), a free and open-source sandbox video game engine formerly known as Minetest, as a standalone ingredient, using the `echo` command
 
 ```
-$ git clone https://git.phyllo.me/roots/phyllomeos && cd phyllomeos
+echo "%packages --exclude-weakdeps # Beginning of the package section. Does not include weak dependencies
+
+luanti # Multiplayer infinite-world block sandbox with survival mode
+
+%end # End of the packages section" > ingredients/extra-luanti.cfg
 ```
 
-* Make a copy of the `template.cfg` file and rename it
+Instead of creating a recipe from scratch, let's make a copy of the `virtual-desktop.cfg` recipe, which provide a Desktop environment necessary for *luanti* to function
 
 ```
-$ cp ingredients/template.cfg ingredients/extra-luanti.cfg
+cp recipes/virtual-desktop.cfg recipes/virtual-desktop-luanti.cfg
 ```
 
-* Add software `luanti` to your file:
+- Add the extra ingredient to the new recipe:
 
-```
-$ nano ingredients/extra-luanti.cfg
+``` 
+echo "%include ../ingredients/extra-luanti.cfg # Sandbox video game engine" >> recipes/virtual-desktop-luanti.cfg
 ```
 
-```
-# What ? This partial kickstart file provides the video game Luanti
+#### Flatten
 
-%packages --exclude-weakdeps # Beginning of the packages section. Excludes weak package dependencies
-
-luanti # a free and open-source sandbox video game
-
-%end
-```
-
-* Navigate inside the `recipes` folder:
+- Prepare the dish by following the recipe, a process called 'flattening'
 
 ```
-$ cd recipes
-```
-
-* Pick a suitable recipe to add your ingredient to it. As luanti is a GUI application, `virtual-desktop.cfg` is a fitting candidate. Make a copy of it.
-
-```
-$ cp virtual-desktop.cfg virtual-desktop-lunanti.cfg
-```
-
-* Edit the file and add the newly defined ingredient:
-
-```
-$ nano virtual-desktop-luanti.cfg
-```
-
-```
-%include ../ingredients/base-fedora-repo.cfg # offical repositories for Fedora
-%include ../ingredients/base-storage.cfg # base storage
-%include ../ingredients/base.cfg # A minimal machine
-%include ../ingredients/base-desktop-gnome.cfg # A desktop environment
-%include ../ingredients/base-guest-agents.cfg # Guest agents
-%include ../ingredients/base-initial-setup-gnome.cfg # Includes initial-setup for GNOME Shell, allowing for the creation of a user after the first boot, as well as some basic configuration
-
-%include ../ingredients/extra-luanti.cfg # A free and open-source sandbox video game
-
-poweroff # Shut down the system after a successful installation
-```
-
-* Merge the kickstart basic building blocks a single file, or dish. This process is called 'flattening'.
-
-```
-$ ksflatten -c virtual-desktop-lunanti.cfg -o ../dishes/virtual-desktop-luanti.cfg
+ksflatten -c recipes/virtual-desktop-luanti.cfg -o dishes/virtual-desktop-luanti.cfg
 ```
 
 > If any errors are detected, go back and fix them.
 
-If multiple dishes are affected by your ingredients, flatten them all while in the `recipes` folder.
+It is time to test the new dish!
+
+#### Kickstart
+
+- Make the `deploy-vm.sh` script executable
+
+```
+chmod +x deploy-vm.sh
+```
+
+- Execute the script
+
+```
+./deploy-vm.sh
+```
+
+- Select the new dish, *virtual-desktop-luanti*
+
+```
+[...]
+Available files:
+1. desktop-hypervisor-amdcpu
+[...]
+14. virtual-desktop-luanti
+```
+
+- When the installation is done, the machine will shut down
+
+- Start it again, and ensure that Luanti has correctly been installed
+
+That's it !
+
+### Example 2: Create a new recipe from the existing list of ingredients
+
+The file `recipes/_list-of-ingredients.cfg` can be copied and edited to create your own remix of Phyllome OS, which itself is a remix of Fedora.
+
+```
+cp recipes/_list-of-ingredients.cfg recipes/my-new-distro.cfg
+```
+
+Then edit the said file to include your favorite ingredient
+
+```
+nano recipes/my-new-distro.cfg
+```
+
+```
+#            __          ____                        ____  _____
+#     ____  / /_  __  __/ / /___  ____ ___  ___     / __ \/ ___/
+#    / __ \/ __ \/ / / / / / __ \/ __ `__ \/ _ \   / / / /\__ \
+#   / /_/ / / / / /_/ / / / /_/ / / / / / /  __/  / /_/ /___/ /
+#  / .___/_/ /_/\__, /_/_/\____/_/ /_/ /_/\___/   \____//____/
+# /_/          /____/
+
+# The list of ingredients for composing Phyllome OS
+# Uncomment lines with "%include" to enable ingredient
+
+# Installation method
+# Exactly one option has to be picked
+# %include ../ingredients/core.cfg # Text mode
+# %include ../ingredients/live-core.cfg # For live systems only
+# Documentation: https://pykickstart.readthedocs.io/en/latest/kickstart-docs.html#graphical-or-text-or-cmdline
+
+# Storage configuration

+# WARNING !!! Will erase local disks!
+# %include ../ingredients/core-storage.cfg # Basic ext4 partition layout for UEFI-based systems
+# %include ../ingredients/live-core-storage.cfg # For live systems only
+# Documentation: https://pykickstart.readthedocs.io/en/latest/kickstart-docs.html#part-or-partition
+[...]
+```
+
+- Once you are done, you can [flatten](#flatten) the file and [kickstart](#kickstart) it as explained in the previous section.
+
+## FAQ
+
+If multiple dishes are affected by your ingredient, you can flatten them all
+
+- Navigate to the recipes' directory
+
+```
+cd recipes
+```
+
+- Then use the following
 
 ```
 for filename in *.cfg; do ksflatten -c "$filename" -o "../dishes/$filename"; done
 ```
 
-* Navigate inside the `dishes` folder:
+The following message can safetly be ignored:
 
 ```
-$ cd ../dishes/
-```
-
-* You can then kickstart your own installation:
-
-```
