Hey all,
A virtual machine with a JHBuild snapshot from 20060818 is available
in my home directory at:
http://www.gnome.org/~bmsmith/gnome-vm-20060818.tar.bz2
The login/password = gdpuser/gdpuser123
After you login in, run "startx" to start GNOME.
To shutdown, use "sudo shutdown -h now"
This time, I also took the time to write some documentation about the
process I used to create the virtual machine. You can find that
documenation here:
http://www.gnome.org/~bmsmith/build-brigade-vm/
We still have free reign on docs until the 3rd of September (when
tarballs are due), so that's a good eight days.
Hope the virtual machine image helps.
Comments/Feedback are appreciated.
Regards,
Hate to reply to myself, but I forgot some important information.
The image may have some problems that I am not aware of, that are not a
result of bugs - so *please* DO NOT files bugs that you find in the
virtual machine.
The compressed size is 600MB (599495447 bytes). The uncompressed size
is 2GB.
The md5sum is 2da116676bdb4267cd87ca31e7816bed
I notice that a lot of programs crash on exit; again please do not file
bugs for problems you encounter in the virtual machine.
Thanks again,
