Use the make release target to produce the initial set of files (source, ISO, ...). Several of the files produced will be released to the world at large. Producing them takes a LONG time. 

[root@nst-dev-32 repo]# make release
Attempting to check out current source code...

... lots of messages as it checks out a fresh copy and builds ...

... resulting files will be under: nst-VERSION directory

[root@nst-dev-32 repo]#

Currently, the following files will be built:

nst-${RELEASE}/nst-${RELEASE}.tar.gz
The source code which was previously "tagged" for the release.
nst-${RELEASE}/nst-${RELEASE}.${HWARCH}.iso
The ISO image of the full NST Live distribution.
nst-${RELEASE}/nst-minimal-${RELEASE}.${HWARCH}.iso
The ISO image of the minimal NST Live distribution (can be burned to CD, installed to hard disk and then yum updated to a full NST system.
nst-${RELEASE}/nst-vm-live-${RELEASE}.${HWARCH}.zip
A small set of files that can be used to boot the NST ISO image under VMware.
nst-${RELEASE}/nst-vm-appliance-${RELEASE}.${HWARCH}.zip
A small set of files that are used later on when building the NST VMware image. These files are not useful to the public at large as most VMware users will just download the full image.
