Hello out there,
yesterday I tried to build Darwin with the DarwinBuildTools supplied by the macosforge.org website.
With the instructions I found in the README file I was able to build the xnu kernel.
But there is more to an OS than the kernel, so I tried to build the other tools like launchd or BootX.
It didnīt work! The compilation stoped. I think in terms of dependencies.
So I looked an found script which should generate a ordered by dependecies list of tools to compilie in the right way. And I found a script which would compile the tools in the list automated.
But the buildorder-script does not work.
There is even a script called darwinmaser which should create a iso-image file out of the compiled packages.
Is there anyone out there with some expirience to this problem or got a solution?
All i want to get is a minimal darwin-system with all the necessary tools to run.
All the rest i want to build with macports or pkgsrc which allows to compile i.e. kde and all the other open-source stuff onto darwin. So i should get yet another unix.
kindest regards
