My experience with GTK apps is that you need to use the -Y
option that
newer versions of SSH require to enable trusted forwarding. 
(This is
applicable to the version of SSH shipped with NetBSD >=
3.0.)  SSH had
its X11 forwarding security tightened up a few releases
back.

Hope this helps,

Hi All,

Well, I've not build a MACPPC/NetBSD-Current ISO CD for a
long time.  
I guess that there are some change ...
Please Can somebody help me ?

Here is the procedure I used before ( 3.99.x release ) :

in the RELEASE.MACPPC directory :

# cd /sata2/BUILD/release.macppc
# cp macppc/binary/kernel/netbsd-GENERIC_MD.gz netbsd.macppc
# cp macppc/installation/ofwboot.xcf .

Creation of the CHRP Bootscript in
"release.macppc/macppc/" :
------------------------------------------------------------
------------ 
----------
<CHRP-BOOT>
<COMPATIBLE>MacRISC</COMPATIBLE>
<DESCRIPTION>
NetBSD/4.99.3/macppc/MacPPC bootable CD script
</DESCRIPTION>
<BOOT-SCRIPT>
boot cd:,ofwboot.xcf netbsd.macppc
</BOOT-SCRIPT>
</CHRP-BOOT>
------------------------------------------------------------
------------ 
----------

Adding Some lines to HFSMAP.LST :
# echo ".chrp - 'chrp' 'tbxi'" >>
/sata2/BUILD/src/distrib/cdrom/ 
hfsmap.lst

ISO Image Creation :

# mkisofs -o NetBSD-4.99.3_macppc_20061006.iso -hfs -part
-map /sata2/ 
BUILD/src/distrib/cdrom/hfsmap.lst -hfs-bless ./macppc 
/sata2/BUILD/ 
src/distrib/cdrom -boot-hfs-file
/sata2/BUILD/src/distrib/cdrom/ 
macppc_installboot/macppcboot.raw -l -J -r -L /sata2/BUILD/ 
release.macppc

BLKNUM=`ls -l NetBSD-4.99.3_macppc_20061006.iso | awk
'{print $5}'`
BLKNUM=`expr $ / 512`

# /sata2/BUILD/src/distrib/cdrom/macppc_installboot/ 
macppc_installboot NetBSD-4.99.3_macppc_20061006.iso
$ 756

dd if=/sata2/BUILD/dest.macppc/usr/mdec/ofwboot bs=64k
count=1  
conv=sync >> NetBSD-4.99.3_macppc_20061006.iso





Well, right now, I've successfully build the 4.99.3 MacPPC
Release,  
but I was unable to find the file macppcboot.raw !

I've seen that it is no longer included in the source tree
...

What is the new way to make this ?

Many thanks

Best regards.

I guess I've found the answer :


# cd /sata2/BUILD/src/distrib/cdrom/macppc_mkboothfs
# make

This produce the following file : macppc_mkboothfs

# ./macppc_mkboothfs macppcboot.raw

Then run the MKISOFS command as usual, using this new
MACPPCBOOT.RAW  
file with the -boot-hfs-file option :

# cd /sata2/BUILD/release.macppc
# mkisofs -o NetBSD-4.99.3_macppc_20061007.iso -hfs -part
-map /sata2/ 
BUILD/src/distrib/cdrom/hfsmap.lst -hfs-bless ./macppc
-boot-hfs- 
file
/sata2/BUILD/src/distrib/cdrom/macppc_mkboothfs/macppcboot.r
aw - 
l -J -r -L /sata2/BUILD/release.macppc

Seems to produce a valid iso image ...

can somebody tell me if I'm right ?

Best regards

I still have a problem ...

You don't have to do it manually, just use Makefile:

# cd /usr/src/distrib/cdrom
# vi current.conf

  comment out CD_IMAGES+= foo-$ lines except
  macppccd-$ if you don't need others

# make RELEASE=current
RSYNC_SITE=rsync://rsync.NetBSD.org/NetBSD-daily/HEAD/200609
250000Z fetch

  of cource you have to change build date in the path
appropriately.

  if you already have necessary release sets on your
machine,
  maybe you could copy them manually to
src/distrib/cdrom/download/ dir.

# make RELEASE=current

  then have fun.

Hi,

That's what i'm actually trying ...

I've also tried a build.sh iso-image ... it works ...

Many thanks

I don't use the NetBSD-Daily ...
I fetch the sources from CVS and build them as usual ...

I've made a link between release.macppc to
src/distrib/cdrom/download
But some files are missing ( CHANGES, CHANGES.prev, ... )

Try in progress

Hi again,

I think I've find what I need to do it manually :

After creating the ISO as described in a previous post, the
correct  
line for "macppc_installboot" is :

# cd /sata2/BUILD/src/distrib/cdrom/macppc_installboot
# ./macppc_installboot /sata2/BUILD/release.macppc/ 
NetBSD-4.99.3_macppc_20061007.iso
/sata2/BUILD/dest.macppc/usr/mdec/ 
bootxx /ofwboot

I've now to test it 

Best Regards

Well,

Le CD seems to be bootable :

at boot press : Command + Option + O + F

then at prompt type : boot cd:,ofwboot.xcf netbsd.macppc

The kernel hang on OHCI devices but, it's maybe because of
one or  
momre add-on card I have in my mac 

Best Regards,

Thanks for your help Izumi ...
