[darwinbuild] darwinbuild on MacIntel

Hi, I try to intall darwinbuild on a new Intel based iMac. I've installed the 0.7.2 version and created a BuildDirectory as described in the doc. Then I launch a /usr/local/bin/darwinbuild Tokend After downloading all the packages, I got this: *** Copying Sources ... *** Installing Roots ... *** Installing Headers ... *** Mounting special filesystems ... Mounting devfs ... Mounting volfs ... /usr/local/bin/darwinbuild: line 791: 3065 Illegal instruction chroot "$BuildRoot" /sbin/mount_volfs "/.vol" I tried also the CVS version of darwinbuild but I get the same error. Any advices? Thanks, Jean-Pierre -- Dr Jean-Pierre Szikora e-mail: szikora(a)icp.ucl.ac.be tel: 32-2-764.75.00 74, av.

[darwinbuild] Custom flags and PB Projects
by Graham J Lee 09 Feb '06

Hi, I've searched the archives and the darwinbuild website for this one, and tried some things of my own, and haven't been able to find an answer, so here I am :-). I'm trying to hunt down a crash in /usr/libexec/bootpd by building a custom bootp-133.6 from Darwin 8G32, using darwinbuild. I want to turn on as much debugging as I can using -ggdb so that I can inspect variables and list source; the default seems to be '-g' which doesn't contain source listing: (gdb) list 1 {standard input}: No such file or directory. in {standard input} Now bootp is a project builder project with a Makefile; I've tried modifying settings in Makefile.postamble including ALL_MFLAGS and ALL_CFLAGS, and DEBUG_SYMBOLS_CFLAGS but they don't get picked up when I subsequently invoke darwinbuild bootp. It still uses the default compiler flags. How do I modify this project to include custom compiler flags? Thanks, Graham.

Re: [darwinbuild] booting xnu 8G32

Hm, typically when I can't even get to the verbose logging I find that the issue is that the booter can't even find either the kernel or the kextcache. There shouldn't be any permissions issues at that stage, but generally booter + kernel + gets you to verbose output and then kext_cache is just about the first thing loaded once the kernel takes over. Perhaps the issue is that the kernel failed to load? Has anyone else had problems getting a home-rolled kernel to load like this? _Mark On Feb 2, 2006, at 10:53 AM, ritchie wrote: > On 06-02-06, at 1419 , Mark Pauley wrote: >> What happens when you boot in verbose mode (hold down apple-v)? >> Perhaps you need to touch your /System/Library/Extensions >> directory, so you don't try to use the old kernel kext-cache with >> your new kernel? >> > I set it to boot in verbose mode in open firmware, but it doesn't > even get that far.

[darwinbuild] booting xnu 8G32

I managed to build xnu 8G32 quite easily last night, and am quite impressed with how slick darwinbuild is. however, when I go to install it on my system, I have the same problem that davec did a month ago: get to the grey apple boot screen and then wedge. am I missing any dependencies, or does the kernel need patching? is there anything tricky I need to do to handle a universal binary? I tried updating the kextcache for the kernel, and also tried booting the ppc only version but had no luck with either. I also updated the build plist to the 8g32od1 version, which doesn't seem to affect xnu from what I can tell. has anyone booted 8.4.1 yet? I also looked into building the entire system via kevin's # darwinxref version '*' | sed -e 's/-.*//' > projects.txt # /usr/local/share/darwinbuild/buildorder projects.txt ordered.txt # /usr/local/share/darwinbuild/buildlist ordered.txt but this fails since I haven't fetched all the packages yet. is there a quick way to do the equivalent of darwinbuild -fetch *, or should I just hack a little curl script together? if I don't _need everything just to get a custom kernel up and running, I won't bother with this step. best, r.
