Kitchen Form :-

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=5626300#post5626300

1)goto this form download kitchen i strongly recommend Linux version

1. Download Ubuntu from ubuntu.com

2. Once it is downloaded, in the VirtualBox program, click the Start button at the top.

3. Close out all the warnings that come up.

4. Then click on Devices > CD/DVD Devices > More CD/DVD Images… then select the .iso image for Ubuntu you downloaded.

2)Then install Ubuntu on ur system(i use vmware for this work)

3)copy kitchen folder to ubuntu the open the folder goto menu run in terminal it should work but if there any error or menu doesnt work then

6. Follow the prompts on the screen to install Ubuntu on your Virtual Machine.

7. Once it is installed and reboots, goto Applications > Accessories > Terminal and type this line with hitting enter at the end:

sudo apt-get install sun-java6-bin sun-java6-jre

It will ask you for a password, type in the password you created when you went through the Ubuntu installation process (it asked you for it before finishing	the install).

Then it will ask you y/n. Hit y then enter. Then when it shows you the terms and conditions, hit right arrow on your keyboard and click enter to select ok.	Then hit left arrow on your keyboard and enter to select Yes.

*NOTE – Your keyboard and mouse will not function on your regular computer once you use them in the Ubuntu virtual machine. To re-enable them, click the Ctrl	button on the right side of your keyboard.

4)Download the java files manually FROM INSIDE THE EMULATOR/LINUX using Firefox here:

**IF YOU GET AN ERROR INSTALLING THE JAVA FILES,

Download the java files manually FROM INSIDE THE EMULATOR/LINUX using Firefox here:

Java6 Bin

Java6 Jre

or

type java in application center in ubuntu jui

Then open the Terminal App in Ubuntu and type this with hitting enter at the end of the line:

sudo dpkg -i sun-java6-jre_6.18-4_all.deb sun-java6-bin_6.18-4_i386.deb

And that should fix it.

5)The open the Kitchen folder in the ubuntu and open MENU file in terminal

6)The rom u want to customize in to be copied into the orignal_update folder

7)Rest u have to enter ur choice in menu and kitchen will create a working folder

8)WORKING folder is the main folder in which u do all ur work(costamization work)

note:- error 6 this is the most frustrating error u will surely face while flashing ur rom and is related to update_scrpit and i stronglly recommend start again from scratch than roaming around finding error

9) download autosign or other signing file if u get any signing error

i want to thank all the dev and persons who help me in solving my problems regarding the kitchen and errors i have faced in developing my roms (which i create form myself as they r not worth posting )

i really appreciate them thanks

I am one big idiot noob
