Updating Haiku image

Forum thread started by ArchMalac on Mon, 2007-12-03 16:24

Hi all!

I installed Haiku on my laptop natively, and now i have a question. Are these steps going to be sufficient when i update Haiku:

cd trunk && svn up

jam haiku-image

jam -q

sudo jam -q

or i have to include building tools before "jam haiku-image" and edit UserBuildConfig before "jam -q"?

These commands are sufficient, but you have to keep in mind that it will reinstall your entire (Haiku-) system; even the config files (keymap, resolution etc. will be replaced). But I didn't manage it to just update the relevant files (from Linux)...

I see, thanks a lot.

You could skip the step where you run "jam haiku-image", as that is equivalent to running just "jam" which you do in the next step anyway. Like this:

svn up
jam -q
sudo jam -q

Shouldn't it be

$ jam -q haiku-image
$ sudo jam -q haiku-image

?

Just "jam" will build everything, doesn't it? Not just the image.

Nope, 'jam' and 'jam haiku-image' will do the same, at least under linux.

It's been a while since Ingo changed that:
