Ok, let's try, see instructions below. I'm asking you to report back on me
any success or failure. In case of failure, there's a logfile called
"log.i386" (or so) in /usr/src, please make that file accessible to me if
things fail (attached in private mail is fine, no need to send to the
list; an URL is most welcome!).
Now, to rebuild the images:
* Note that for rebuilding, no root permissions are needed any more!
Below, the "#" prompt shows action needed as root, "%" is the prompt for
commands executed as user.
* Get a i386/PC machine running NetBSD 5.0. Cross-building from other
Unix-like operating systems may work too, right now it is
confirmed working for Mac OS X 10.5. Reports of others welcome.
* Get NetBSD-current source from ~Aug 30th 2009 as /usr/src:
% su
# mkdir /usr/cvs
# chown $USER /usr/cvs
# ln -s cvs/src /usr/src
# exit
% cd /usr/cvs
% env CVS_RSH=ssh cvs -d anon...@anoncvs.netbsd.org:/cvsroot co -D
20090830 src
* Get the g4u 2.4alpha4 sources
% cd /usr/src
% ftp http://www.feyrer.de/g4u/g4u-2.4alpha4.tgz
* Unpack the g4u sources:
% tar plzvxf g4u-2.4alpha4.tgz
* Apply patches:
% cd /usr/src/sys/dev/ata
% patch <wd.c.patch-g4u
% cd /usr/src/sys/dev/scsipi
% patch <sd.c.patch-g4u
% cd /usr/src/sys/kern
% patch <subr_prf.c.patch-g4u
* Tweak build settings:
% su -
# touch /etc/mk.conf
# chown $USER /etc/mk.conf
# exit
% echo OBJMACHINE=1 >>/etc/mk.conf
%
* Build g4u, which requires a full build of NetBSD userland and a
kernel:
% cd /usr/src
% sh g4u-build
Depending on your machine, this will take some time!
* After that, you'll find "g4u1.fs", "g4u1.fs" and "g4u.iso" in
/usr/src/distrib/i386/g4u
I'm looking forward for your report. Good luck!
