Creating the Repository
-----------------------

1) Go to the daisy root directory.

2) Go to install/target.

3) Execute:   daisy-repository-init-dev
               (linux: sh daisy-repository-init-dev if not executable)

4) This program will ask a number of parameters, which for a development
    environment you can best leave to their defaults, thus simply press
    enter, except:
     * when asked for the password for the user 'internal', enter  
'defaultpwd'
     * when you reach the "drop database" question, answer yes.
     * when asked to create a daisy data directory, answer no.
                                                           ^^

So despite the default, you should answer 'no' when  
daisy-repository-init-dev asks you if you want a data directory to be  
created.

Also, working from a source checkout (SVN), you don't need to specify a  
DAISY_HOME environment variable, only MAVEN_HOME, MERLIN_HOME and  
OPENJMS_HOME.
