NeSuKuN Posted November 30, 2006 Share Posted November 30, 2006 OK, so OpenDarwin closed in the moment I need it... I was wondering if it would be possible to take the lastest OpenDarwin and make it up to date with lastest kernel (8.8.1) and get a command-line only system working and legal. BTW: which could be the minimun hardware requirements of this? Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/34534-opendarwin/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pu7o Posted November 30, 2006 Share Posted November 30, 2006 Darwin 8 has a min-requirement of SSE2, so you'd need at least that. I once got Darwin 8 updated to match OS X 10.4.6 (including the kernel), so it wouldn't necessarily be extra hard to get it up to the latest kernel. And yeah, it'd be legal.

niteice Posted December 1, 2006 Share Posted December 1, 2006 Believe it or not, almost all of the SSE/SSE2 in Darwin seems to be GCC-generated, you just need to patch GCC to not generate it by default.

Pu7o Posted December 1, 2006 Share Posted December 1, 2006 Hey guys... how are you feeling today? All legal, btw. I didn't use a single file from OS X. Only Darwin 8.0.1, the darwin updates up to 8.4 ( http://darwinsource.opendarwin.org/Roots ) and the publically available sources Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/34534-opendarwin/#findComment-245547 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bearcat Posted December 1, 2006 Share Posted December 1, 2006 I have a couple of questions for anyone in the know. 1) It seems the last release on OpenDarwin is 7.2.1 which corresponds to 10.3.something. Is this correct? Did the OpenDarwin project not do anything after that? 2) The last full ISO on Apples Darwin site is the 801 ISO, which corresponds to 10.0. Is that correct? Only source packages released after that. Apple seems to only create an ISO on the first version of a major release. 3) Seems like an onerous task to download all the source packages, compile them, and update your system. Is there a build env for this? and the ability to create a new ISO, say of 8.4.1 Darwin? I'm thinking this might be an interesting project, and a learning experience. Any pointers on how to get started would definitely help. thanks for any info, cheers, Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/34534-opendarwin/#findComment-245675 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pu7o Posted December 1, 2006 Share Posted December 1, 2006 8.0.1 corresponds to 10.4, not 10.0. OpenDarwin 7.2.1 corresponds to OS X 10.3.2. Yes, that's the latest version. I don't know about creating a new ISO. Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/34534-opendarwin/#findComment-245708 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bearcat Posted December 1, 2006 Share Posted December 1, 2006 8.0.1 corresponds to 10.4, not 10.0. Your are right, that's what I meant, but not what I typed Thanks for the correction Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/34534-opendarwin/#findComment-245742 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pu7o Posted December 1, 2006 Share Posted December 1, 2006 Yeah... I followed a guide on the wiki. This one. Then I installed Maxxuss' network driver, and installed all the updates.

Mohan Embar Posted April 29, 2007 Share Posted April 29, 2007 Hi Pu7o, Could you explain in more detail what you mean by "installed all the updates"? Thanks so much for your previous post.
