Bug Description

I just tried our SDK from scratch. Without any KIT, a developer cannot use it to generate a template application. I think this is good for complete all of the installation (remind the developers to do this). However, it may not be good for some cases. For example, in a classroom, a developer may install the SDK images. However, the network speed is poor (no network, or network shared by many people). Install the chroot takes years to complete. In the end, the developers cannot do anything.

Without the limitation, at least the developers can try the develop on desktop for scope and QML application development.

Thanks & best regards,
Xiaoguo

This should be setuped by the school, or in the specical `demo' image for developer.

Possible solutions
1. an virtualbox image
2. an local mirror archive on the laptop, point every machine to the laptop.

This is not an issue of qtcreator-plugin-ubuntu

Installing a kit (chroot) takes ages to complete. I think it is good to get the wizard completed even without installing the "chroot". A tip is good to remind where to install the chroot (options==>Ubutun==>"Click").

This is useful when network is bad, and a developer may want to start to develop on desktop first or run some examples to learn from. In the good network condition, he can start to install the chroot. This is especially useful for classroom training. The developers can start to follow the exercise without the need of a chroot.

Best regards,
