Hi,

Did anyone tried OpenDarwin. Just to see if it can be boot or something. I remember some time ago that someone said the port to the Peg is going slowly. I could be wrong.

is there going to be an open darwin port? and if so could macosx run nativly on a peg if such a port is done?

anyone?

The person ready to do this is waiting for their Pegasos II.

By now he should have one. Give it a few hours for setting up and fooling around, 2 weeks for the port. Right?

Wrong! It's 2 more weeks!

Very old Topic, new Post.

I did a search on Google but found nothing, except of "Yeah maybe". So any news for Opendarwin on Pegasos II?

I've got the base system (toolchain, libc, kernel, etc.) building with portage, but hit a roadblock when Apple decided to not release source for a few key IOKit projects and a couple system libraries. Since the Intel announcement, Apple has been a little more secretive than usual with their sources...I've talked to Kevin van Vechten at Apple and he hopes to have the missing sources released in the coming weeks.

I'm more than a little concerned of the future of Darwin/ppc, obviously upstream development will be focused on x86, with ppc mainly getting minor bug fixes. As it is now, there is only a handful of people(myself included) who have an interest in, and develop for Darwin/ppc, and the userbase is virtually non-existant. With that lack of manpower, the only way I can see Darwin being viable as a standalone OS is to not stray too far from upstream development, which in this case no longer has an interest in ppc...

Is there strong interest out there....?

i have an interest in it, although its agrivating if the guy donated the equipment not going to keep his word. (COmpletely understandable if he switches projects) Like develops an emulator for playstation2 woudl be cool. =) Amiga os4 has one. Or what ever else may interest him.

I am interested in it. The more stuff that runs on it the better. Not just Darwin but let's say Haiku for example. But it is nice to see that Linux is supported very well. Anyway there is choice and that is always good.
