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"?

General Haiku questions

General Haiku Discussion

For a class assignment, we've be asked to research various operating systems covering topics such as kernel architecture, resource management, process scheduling, file system management... After exploring the Haiku website and reading some of the developer documents, we're still missing some information about these subjects. Is there anywhere else I might be able to find more information? Also, is it safe to reference documentation from BeOS that explain some of these details. Thanks

Are there any localization projects for Haiku?

Hi, I am a professional translator and wonder if there are any localization projects going on for Haiku (or if there are already localized versions of Haiku images available)?

I would be interested in working on a German version of Haiku, but I would need to know if there is already some localization project on the way - and in which way the strings could be made available for translation.

P.S. Many years ago (that was in 1999 if I remember well), I have worked on German versions of Binkjet and Netpenguin, so I do have some experience with Beos. You can directly contact me under prach@gmxpro.net

Hello,

I've encountered this problem while jamming the haiku source:

CopySetHaikuRevision1 generated/objects/haiku/x86/release/system/kernel/revisioned/kernel_x86
Usage: set_haiku_revision

Finds the haiku revision section in ELF object file and replaces the
writes the number given by into the first 32 bits of the
section.

export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$LD_LIBRARY_PATH:generated/objects/linux/lib
revision=`(LANG=C svn info . 2> /dev/null || echo Revision: 0) |
grep Revision | awk '{printf $2}'`
generated/objects/linux/x86/release/tools/copyattr --data generated/objects/haiku/x86/release/system/kernel/kernel_x86 generated/objects/haiku/x86/release/system/kernel/revisioned/kernel_x86 &&

Hi people,

Funny post actually, since someone post the same request to contact me a couple weeks ago. So: does anyone know how to contact Rudolf C. ? You can drop me an email on contact at beosfrance dot com.

Thanks a lot !
