As per above.
Note that this is near enough what'll be on the CD, not exact as I've a few
builts still to build but here goes:
Arm32 base install stuff, install kernels, riscos bootloader, Xsets (note
that kernels contain a patch to make them reboot properly on risc-os 4).
Note that I'd say that the stuff is stable, the machine I'm running on has
been building (so loaded) for about 6 days uptime now, (and it's using the
same binaries as those in the packages (i'm going to do a test install of it
all tommorrow)
Lots of packages precompiled (60+ including some of the biggies, eg gtk),
list at end of mail. Note it's not complete, I've still got Mosaic, and the
qt2.2.1 libs to get on (sorry no kde2 it's not been released, but I hope to
get them on the net ready for ppl to fetch after it comes out and is in
pkgsrc.) (note that I'm still compiling things as I speak, eg mosaic, (needs
lesstiff), mesa libs will be there. and anything else I can set off building
over night)
Sadly no Mozilla, wouldn't build :(
Complete source code to netbsd, X and most of the pkgsrc stuff (I accidently
deleted a few (oops)) The netbsd X and pkgsrc src files will be a fortnight
out of date as I've been using CVS to update them, but I think most ppl may
find it interesting to use cvs to do that themselves :)
Sadly no arm26, ben's fallen ill and can't make it, and I don't think I've
got time do get the latest snapshot downloaded.
i386, base install stuff, X, install kernels, and the CD is bootable (this
has not been thoughly tested so may or may not work.) No precompiled
packages, but as the source for most stuff will be there you can build your
own.
note there maybe a bit more on the CD (one of the adv of doing our own cd's
is that if someone at the show says have you got this file on there we can
check and add if needed :)
Cheers,
Chris
