bliss Posted July 31, 2006 Share Posted July 31, 2006 Hi! All the Hackintoshs now are running Darwin 8.4.1, but the source for 8.6 (Mac OS 10.4.6) is avalibe? So I don't unterstand mutch from coding, but wouldnt it possible to build a new 8.6 kernel from the sources for the Hackintosh's? Heres the link: http://www.opensource.apple.com/darwinsource/ and the direct link to the 8.6 x86 source: http://www.opensource.apple.com/darwinsource/10.4.6.x86/ so i would like to look at it. what do i need? Xcode? can i get it here? : http://developer.apple.com/tools/download/ but the site is very slow. i cant download anything at the moment. so tell me what to do and i'll try well, of cause its very imossible that i can manage it, but i'll try and want to give a peek on it.

gwprod12 Posted July 31, 2006 Share Posted July 31, 2006 The source tree has branched into x86 source and ppc source. The vital sources (boot, kernel, frameworks, vital kexts, etc) are only in the PPC tree. To my mind, it would require a feat of reverse-engineering to make all of the sources compliant with 10.4.3 (the last unified source, IIRC). But I could be wrong =] EDIT: Since the x86 darwin source doesnt include kernel source, there really isnt much point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
