• create buildbotcustom-{your_name}

cp -r buildbotcustom-clean buildbotcustom-{your_name}

switch master to use your configs/buildbotcustom

• book the master you want to use
• go to the directory of your master
• run

• edit

/tools/buildbotcustom{ ,2}/buildbotcustom-{your-name}/process/factory.py

#self.customTalos = customTalos
self.customTalos = 'talos.zip' #customTalos

/build/buildbot/user-configs{ ,2}/configs-{your_name}/talos

• just package it into and it will be downloaded and unzipped per-run

/build/buildbot/user-configs{ ,2}/configs-{your_name}/talos.zip
