A pre-configured Development environment for AROS

[miker1264]

Update:

AROS has been building in my 'build' folder (not source!) for about half an hour now...hoping and praying it all goes well.

A special thanks to bsek for the help in getting it running. It seems the information on IcarosDesktop.org should be ammended slightly.

In this case I created a new 'aros/build' file structure. Git clone + url is the proper way to copy out sources not downloading zip files. When a new directory with new sources is created be mindful of the configure syntax. Omit portsrc because it doesn't exist. Target is also optional. It will default to the current architecture. But I may need to declare the target in order to build a boot ISO.

Lastly and most importantly, Though the Virtual Machine is the same and the software is the same the hardware on the individual user side is Not The Same! In the make command you should specify with a -j switch the number of cores to use during the build process. Too few and it won't build. Too many and it won't build. You have to find the Goldilocks Zone - the correct number of cores & the max amount of memory to build AROS.

It's still building. So far so good...

(Note to self. Fix the Pizza Timer because it keeps popping up during the build process!)

Would you please provide a detailed information about what you did? the linux command 'history' would come handy too, to track the exact commands you gave. Thank you.

Sorry. I've been busy. This is the sequence that I used however I'm going to actually declare a target and try to build an ISO as well:

mkdir -p aros/build

cd aros

git clone https://github.com/aros-development-team/AROS.git

cd build
../AROS/configure --enable-ccache --with-gcc-version=9.1.0 --with-binutils-version=2.32

make -j2

The last part is very important as well. -j2 means to use "2 cores" while building.

Using "git clone" is the better method to download and install the sources rather than simply downloading zip files.

[Amiwell]

in the suite it is possible to add the sources and everything related to odyssey, maybe someone could find benefit on this if he wants to work comfortably

Ooook, I guess I have to modify a little your procedure to adapt it to my current directory structure. It should be really easy.


By the way, the sources in /sources are NOT taken from ZIP file, but are an actual copy of my repo I cloned with git. And they compile. I don't know exactly what happens if you overwrite them with contents of zip files on aros.org.


Maybe I should make this clearer.

paolone also needs to install the build-essentials , I have so much free time I don't work I want to dedicate myself to the port of the games and maybe some application, we'll see if I can

[Amiwell]

miker let's see if I can with your procedure

[Amiwell]

it worked with the procedure described on vmaros only that i did something wrong

[Amiwell]

gives me this error when compiling the tree

[Amiwell]

I should have solved it I needed mako

[wawa]

right.

[Amiwell]

ok try the complete build enviroment by paolone

[el-topo]

The preconfigured development vm image is not available at the download link atm (heavy bandwidth usage perhaps?). Does anybody have the unaltered image so we can put it on archive.org or something? Then we can help with the bandwidth through bittorrent since archive.org automatically creates web shares.

[miker1264]

I use the 64bit build environment set up by Paolone quite often.

I'd like to set up a 32bit build environment for compiling for ABIv0.

Salvo,
If you have successfully set up an ABIv0 source structure that compiles AROS maybe you could help me to set up mine also?

[AMIGASYSTEM]

 miker if it helps, you can try my AROS One v1.2 ABIv0:
