I have been at this for a while and I just can;t seem to find the info anywhere on the web. Namely, how do you build a complete darwin that is capable of at least getting into single user mode.
Hmmm. Nobody did this already, I'm afraid.You can get quite close, however. See <http://release.opendarwin.org/> to see what others get.
I have successfully built xnu for 8C46 but when I try to put it on a target running 8C46 as an alternate kernel it wedges really quick (Gery screen, square corners, grey apple).
Works here. I've successfully built kernels for Darwin 8, 8.2 and 8.3 and all three worked well: <http://www.jump-ing.de/index.php? Lang=de&Menu=3&SubMenu=2> I did a small tweak only, as well.
... the new 8C46 kernel is almost twice as big. Debugging stuff?
The Darwin kernel should be slightly smaller than the Mac OS X one. A debug kernel would be about 10 times (or something in this area) as big.
Do I have to specify each and every package individually to get an entire build?
Not sure about this one. Markus - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Dipl. Ing. Markus Hitter http://www.jump-ing.de/
