Ok, i'm completely new at this, so pardon me if i don't understand alot of things..

I want to compile the .tar from webos games into .deb format so that non-geek users can install the games right away.

Now i was able to install the games with the following method :

1. Extract the .ipk games
2. Put the .tar in home folder
3. run the following code

Code:

sudo gainroot
cd /
tar xvf /home/user/MyDocs/game.tar
cd /opt/preenv/usr/palm/applications/com.gameloft.app.realsoccer2010/gamefolder
chmod +rwx game
cd ..
desktopgen appinfo.json

Now i want to create the .deb file that runs above script.
Basically it's just processing the .tar file with a script that contains the code above.

So can anyone tell me the general idea to implement this?
I've set up maemo SDK under VMware player,

Then i run the scratchbox on X-terminal but idk what to do next..
i've been following this tutorial but i can't find what i want there ..
