- Download the sources as tar.gz- (***, ***) or lha-archive (***, ***).
- Unpack the source with
tar xvvzf AROSdev.tgz
This will create a directory named AROS/ and will populate it with all sources.
Make sure the following packages which are listed here are installed.
Type "make". Doing this the first time will produce lots of errors and warnings which will *not* abort make. Most of them will read
"makefile:86: ../../bin/linux-i386/gen/os/dosgetstring.d: No such file or directory"
but Make knows how to create these. When you run make the second time, these will not show up anymore.
After some time, make will finish and you will have a directory AROS/bin/linux-i386/AROS/ which contains all binaries for linux.
CD into AROS/bin/linux-i386/AROS/ and call arosshell. This will produce some debug output and a prompt Workbench:>. Now type dir all. If you get a list of all generated files, congratiulations, your copy is working.
