<h1>OpenBeOS Network Kit: Build & installation instructions</h1>
|
|
|
|
|
<p>Although the stack isn't quite finished, you can already test some basics.
|
|
|
|
|
You'll have to get the code, build it, install it and run it. There isn't yet
|
|
|
|
|
an easier way of getting the network stack, we're far from ready to release
|
|
|
|
|
a binary package. </p>
|
|
|
|
|
<p>So, if you accept your mission :</p>
|
|
|
|
|
<h4>a) First, go to <a href="http://open-beos.sourceforge.net/tms/team.php?id=7">team
|
|
|
|
|
web page</a>.</h4>
|
|
|
|
|
<blockquote>
|
|
|
|
|
<p>Have a look around and see the current status of the stack. Have a glance
|
|
|
|
|
over the jobs, perhaps there's something that interests you?</p>
|
|
|
|
|
</blockquote>
|
|
|
|
|
<h4>b) Get the <a href="http://open-beos.sourceforge.net/dev.php">build tools
|
|
|
|
|
suite</a>.</h4>
|
|
|
|
|
<blockquote>
|
|
|
|
|
<p>You'll need CVS, JAM, the fixed LD linker</p>
|
|
|
|
|
</blockquote>
|
|
|
|
|
<h4>c) Then, you should checkout (anonymously) the full OBOS CVS. </h4>
|
|
|
|
|
<blockquote>
|
|
|
|
|
<p>SourceForge has some <a href="http://sourceforge.net/cvs/?group_id=33869">information
|
|
|
|
|
on CVS</a>. If you don't want to fight with 'cvs' command line syntax, I recommand
|
|
|
|
|
you using <a href="http://www.bebits.com/app/3407">CheckItOut</a> tool.</p>
|
|
|
|
|
<p> Enter these values: <br>
|
|
|
|
|
<em>Projet Name</em>: open-beos <br>
|
|
|
|
|
<em>Location</em>: /path/to/where/you/want/to/store/OBOS/cvs/tree/locally<br>
|
|
|
|
|
<em>Module Name</em>: current <br>
|
|
|
|
|
Only check <em>"Open Tracker once Completed"</em> option, if you
|
|
|
|
|
want. <br>
|
|
|
|
|
There, click "<em>Go</em>". Patience, it take time (and bandwidth!)</p>
|
|
|
|
|
<p>Other solution: download and unzip the current CVS <a href="http://cvs.sourceforge.net/cvstarballs/open-beos-cvsroot.tar.gz%20">snapshot
|
|
|
|
|
tarball</a> from: Expect around 13MB.</p>
|
|
|
|
|
</blockquote>
|
|
|
|
|
<h4>d) Open a Terminal, cd to your all new local CVS current directory. </h4>
|
|
|
|
|
<blockquote>
|
|
|
|
|
<p> Then:</p>
|
|
|
|
|
<pre>
|
|
|
|
|
$ ./configure
|
|
|
|
|
$ jam NetworkingKit</pre>
|
|
|
|
|
<p>It should build all networking kit stuffs. If you encount any compile or
|
|
|
|
|
link errors, report it to the network team mailing list.</p>
|
|
|
|
|
</blockquote>
|
|
|
|
|
<h4>e) Installation</h4>
|
|
|
|
|
<blockquote>
|
|
|
|
|
<p>Installation script or jam rule is a task uncompleted. So, currently, you
|
|
|
|
|
have to install by hands. It sucks, I know.</p>
|
|
|
|
|
<p>The network stuff binaries are now under your local <em>current/distro/x86.R1/*</em></p>
|
|
|
|
|
<p>To install:</p>
|
|
|
|
|
</blockquote>
|
|
|
|
|
<ul>
|
|
|
|
|
<li> open your <em>current/distro/x86.R1/beos/system/add-ons/kernel/drivers/bin</em><br>
|
|
|
|
|
</li>
|
|
|
|
|
<li> copy the <em>net_stack_driver</em> and <em>net_server_driver</em> into
|
|
|
|
|
your <em>/boot/home/config/add-ons/kernel/drivers/bin</em><br>
|
|
|
|
|
</li>
|
|
|
|
|
<li> create in your <em>/boot/home/config/add-ons/kernel/drivers/dev/net</em>
|
|
|
|
|
two symlinks <em>"net_stack_driver"</em> and <em>"net_server_driver"</em>,
|
|
|
|
|
targetting the ones in ../../bin/net_{stack|server}_driver (create this 'dev/net'
|
|
|
|
|
directory if needed)<br>
|
|
|
|
|
</li>
|
|
|
|
|
<li> copy the whole <em>current/distro/x86.R1/beos/system/add-ons/kernel/</em><br>
|
|
|
|
|
network folder to your <em>/boot/home/config/add-ons/kernel</em><br>
|
|
|
|
|
</li>
|
|
|
|
|
<li> copy the <em>libnet.so</em> and <em>libnetapi.so</em> libraries from current/distro/
|
|
|
|
|
x86.R1/beos/system/lib to a <em>lib</em> where your networking kit binaries are
|
|
|
|
|
located.<br>
|
|
|
|
|
</li>
|
|
|
|
|
<li> copy the command line net apps from <em>current/distro/x86.R1/beos/bin</em>
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
into your <em>/boot/home/config/bin</em> (or another folder of your choice)</li>
|
|
|
|
|
</ul>
|
|
|
|
|
<h4>f) Test the stack</h4>
|
|
|
|
|
<blockquote>
|
|
|
|
|
<p>You should free one of your /dev/net/*/0 network card (by disable in BONEyard,
|
|
|
|
|
or by disabling in Network for net_server) Then, run the ifconfig tool from
|
|
|
|
|
Terminal to see (and start) the stack detected interface(s) Last, play with
|
|
|
|
|
ping, arp, traceroute, etc. Also check out the details on the <a href="http://philippe.houdoin.free.fr/phil/beos/openbeos/network_kit/">stack
|
|
|
|
|
design.</a></p>
