Moiuntain Lion Sources released

August 02nd 2012 Posted to Apple,Mountain Lion

So, Apple released sources of some components of mountain lion, like xnu kernel.

http://opensource.apple.com/release/mac-os-x-108/

Just for fun, I’ve built 32-bit xnu kernel – http://rghost.ru/39532549

    How to build xnu kernel in recent days? Thanks. At least the doc from apple is out-dated.
    Thanks.

    Googled and tried with following articles:
    http://www.techedze.com/Thread-compiling-xnu-kernel-on-snow-leopard-10-6-4
    http://objc.id.au/post/10101528120/compiling-the-os-x-10-7-kernel

    Got a build with 10.8 source code on ML, but only with cxxfilter and dtrace-96, but some articles mentioned bootstrap_cmds and kext_tools. And I did find some error info when building xnu, like:
    ERROR: IORangeAllocator.cpp: failed to get mapping for tid 1227

    Would you like to write an article about them? Thanks.

    Thanks for your work – highly appreciated!
    About that 32Bit kernel – will that allow us to load 32 bit kexts? Reason is I have two otherwise perfectly running Macbook & Mac Mini w/Intel GMA 950. Apple doesn’t support these with ML, there is no 64 bit kext with working QE/CI.

    Thanks
