Welcome to the Wiki for the Apollo Team's AROS work.

This page gives a quick guide into getting AROS compiling on your linux machine (yes, sorry no windows instructions just now). The AROS page has generic steps for all operating systems so check there for your platform.

Preparing your System

This guide will focus on debian based systems such as Ubuntu or Linux Mint. Perhaps some kind soul could update this with steps for other systems in the future.

First install the necessary packages for running the compilation

sudo apt-get install git-core gcc g++ make cmake gawk bison flex bzip2 netpbm autoconf automake libx11-dev libxext-dev libc6-dev liblzo2-dev libxxf86vm-dev libpng-dev libsdl1.2-dev byacc python-mako libxcursor-dev gcc-multilib libxxf86vm1:i386

Cloning the repository and Starting Compilation

This can be scripted or run by hand. If you know what you are doing (and if you are here we assume so) then you can either take this following script as is or extract the steps yourself.

git clone --recursive https://github.com/aros-development-team/AROS.git & sleep 5 cd AROS git clone --recursive https://github.com/aros-development-team/ports.git & git clone --recursive https://github.com/aros-development-team/contrib.git & wait $(jobs -p) make clean rm -rf bin ./configure --target=amiga-m68k --with-optimization="-Os" --enable-ccache --with-serial-debug make -j16
