Custom personal repo - HOW!

i dont get this at all and the instructions on the blendos is very unclear to me i only have this in my system.yaml repo: 'https://pkg-repo.blendos.co' arch-repo: 'https://geo.mirror.pkgbuild.com' impl: 'https://github.com/tolgaerok/blendos-nvidia-kde/raw/main' # impl: 'https://raw.githubusercontent.com/tolgaerok/blendos-nvidia-kde/main/plasma-nvidia-tolga.yaml' track: 'plasma-nvidia-tolga' as i have my yaml on github https://github.com/tolgaerok/blendos-nvidia-kde/blob/main/system.yaml it reports back on update that there's no kernel??????? (13/15) Probing GTK3 input method modules... (14/15) Updating icon theme caches... (15/15) Updating the desktop file MIME type cache... [ERROR] no Linux kernel found in new system [ERROR] cancelling update so as not to render the system unbootable [ERROR] aborting umount: /.new_rootfs/: not mounted. rmdir: failed to remove '/.new_rootfs/': Directory not empty ┌(tolga@blend) ➤ ~ └➤ Using blendOS can’t be harder than wrestling with NixOS, right? And YAML? Man, that syntax is a nightmare .... one wrong space and the whole thing falls apart. Definitely not my favorite way to mess with configs
Solution:
repo: 'https://pkg-repo.blendos.co/' arch-repo: 'https://geo.mirror.pkgbuild.com/' impl: 'https://github.com/tolgaerok/blendos-nvidia-kde/raw/main' track: 'plasma'...

it says there's no kernel because you didn't include a kernel add linux-zen or something to your packages also, if you don't like yaml, then you can use a json to yaml converter or whatever my opinion on it fwiw (though i didn't make the decision to use yaml) is that if there's a good chance i'm gonna be editing it a lot with nano or something, then i'd rather use yaml over something like json. it's easier to fix the rare typo where i put an extra space or something, rather than dealing with all json's syntax every line or just fork akshara to use json, it's a pretty simple script, and making your own pacman repo is pretty easy

Great info. Could you be kind to guide me through this please and also need a clearer explanation on how I can impl my personal github yaml as I don't understand how this is achieved and I'm always directed by members to the blendos homepage to follow the explanation. I'm not grasping the vague instructions on the website and prefer a guided direction from members implementation
