These instructions outline the process of setting up a working build environment for the Bootable Cluster CD (BCCD).
1. Download and unpack a Debian chroot environment, or create one yourself.
wget http://bccd.cs.uni.edu/~tmcnulty/chroots/chroot-<arch>.tar.bz2 sudo tar xjf chroot-<arch>.tar.bz2
2. Enter the chroot:
sudo chroot chroot-<arch> /bin/bash cd
3. Optional but recommended. Download a local copy of all the third party sources:
wget http://bccd.cs.uni.edu/~tmcnulty/chroots/garchive.tar # 600-some MB tar xf garchive.tar -C /
4. Enter the CVS checkout and update it:
su - bccd cd bccd cvs -d:pserver:anonymous@bccd.cs.uni.edu:/ login # hit return when prompted for a password cvs -d:pserver:anonymous@bccd.cs.uni.edu:/ up
5. Start the build process:
cd meta/lnx-bbc make singularity_GARCH=<arch> build # where <arch> is one of: ppc, i386 # wait a long time
6. Grab the ISO and burn it to a CD:
cp work/main.d/bccd-*.iso ~ cd # use your favorite burner here
