GNU-Darwin Goes Beta

Posted by CmdrTaco on from the now-that's-easy dept.

proclus writes "OSX.1 users can now install the GNU-Darwin base distribution automatically with one command. As Root: "curl http://gnu-darwin.sourceforge.net/one_stop | csh"." This assummes you have curl or wget or something. From there you can install gnome, abiword, gimp or whatever. Looks pretty smooth (although I'm kinda confused how you get back to OSX.1 from there ;)

    for ide users
    just plug in your guitar and get ready to create
    some art.
    dd of=/dev/wd0 if=/dev/audio
    or
    dd of=/dev/sd0 if=/dev/audio
    for scsi.
    Your going to need a sound card as this obviously
    want work the way we want it too otherwise.
    After you press enter, start playing your best
    rifts and chords. Put some improvisation into it. Feel the music. If you need playback, pipe what you are playing back through dev/dsp device.

    Mac's are fun now arent' they. When you finish just reboot and get ready for the surpise of a lifetime.

    Mapquest and Amazon also seem to have problems displaying correctly in Dillo. It is a piece of crap.

    Is there a reason it sounds like "Dildo" ?

    I'm serious, the mental association is there, they had to have thought of that when they were choosing the name.

    Of course, I live in a country where the major right wing politcal party once renamed itself to 'C.R.A.P.', so maybe not...

    Yes its true, we're pulling out. No more will we listen to you whine and cry because you can't play Doom 8: Revenge of the Cyborg Ferrari under FreeBSD. There have been measures put into place to ignore the netcraft scans and feed them false information about our operating system. In actuality, FreeBSD 5.0 is available to us elite GOD's of the bit and byte's domain. You are just not worthy of its sweet necter of knowledge. You lack the intellect to comprehend its vastness. It lies on a different plane than you can comprehend. You are inferior. One day you will understand when you evolve form your current state of mind. You will see that it has been right there sitting on the server all this time. You were confused by prompt release dates of various large scale and expensive untimely release dated software. I pitty you. Yet I long for the day when the fools will tire of their joking and take the time to research the target of their puns. Peace fellow '/.' (slashdotters)
