This is a ISO image converted from a Raw one for Qemu.. maybe using 'qemu-image convert' command could help
Unzipped size looks crazy big to me. You put lots of programs in there. I guess only for burning to DVD-R. Looks like good work from your description. Later,
you can't just convert a hard disk image to an iso. you'll miss the bootloader for the CD. I gave instructions in the forum how to do this.
Help me get it setup.
I can configure all of the build styles, ISO,VM,RAW,Anyboot etc
This way you can stream your changes up to the machine and it can handle the heavy lifting.

Does this work with haiku ?
BTW. Can you see some directories inside after burn or mounted iso?
I think Michael has never mounted an ISO in virtual machine (like QEMU or VirtualBox) for testing. That's why this ISO was never checked and assumed working.
Pretty girl but I come here to see Haiku stuff and not pretty girls. Other sites for that.
does she have a sister ?
i don't see why it wouldn't. perhaps someone else has a better idea, or knows an alternative solution.
Michael any ideas ?
First, you will create a Haiku copy from svn. Later fork it, and rename to Senryu (develop/haiku/trunk and develop/senryu/trunk)
after, go to senryu trunk and create the generated folders for an hybrid, and do ../configure to generate buildtools
I will send the all dozen files to create the distro to you later..
I've not managed to build a bootable image ever.
Might seem simple to you.
I could explain how to overhaul a turbine, but wouldn't seem simple to you.
simply follow this guide first
www.haiku-os.org/guides/building/gcc-hybrid
and
www.haiku-os.org/guides/building/userbuildconfig
few observations with test Senryu:
- I would use the qt version 4.7.1- now is definitely more stable and better tested than 4.8.0
- I used Arora, unfortunately, does not offer much more than WebPositive in the latest version and can crash on several pages - I use Transmission and Kadu on qt - this work fine.
- Wallpaper on Senryu is fine but logo is a nightmare;)
- Instead LaunchBox I would DynamicLaunchBox - although this does not work on recent rev Haiku (sic)
Observations on the fast...
Problem is everything should get re-compiled, where possible, when releasing distro (just like Alphas do). That makes the most stable release but a) takes lots more time to do and b) harder.
I see that Michael searched images for Senryu and grabbed one of the first images that appears.

To compare logos, here are Ubuntu & Debian ones. Notice how simple they look. Someone should come up with unique logo for Senryu too.

www.webmastergrade.com/decorate-your-desktop-with-ubuntu-wallpapers/
so whats net.
Quoting michaelvoliveira:
I'll send him a mail.
where should I upload the image and what formats do you think I shoiuld build ?
Raw/anyboot/iso/VMDK ???
Michael created a RAW image to use instead. You have to download and use the RAW. You should delete the ISO.
Michael wrote, "- This is a *7zipped RAW image (1,2 GB extracted) - cut down 100mb this time ;)
Tested on Qemu - it boots!"
I geuss the question is, should we take the opportunity to really make senryu more then its been ? I have plenty of computing power and bandwidth to make a truly kick ass release.
Is it worth including alot more then has been included in the past on a ISO version ?
I can do 2 version
cd and DVD.
we get 4.4 gb of useable space on the dvd.
Maybe its time for a fat disk.
Pretty much the sky is the limit on Raw files.
4GB DVD is too big. Problem is that many users won't use all the applications installed. Example, I don't play any Haiku games so if you included 20 games on the DVD then I would have to delete them. I don't use Blender or Clockwerk, 2 more programs I'd have to delete. Many users won't use CVS, cmake, Haikuporter or even development tools, etc., etc.
It is about striking the best balance, between size + popular programs, which is what Michael was going for & why his RAW image is 1.2GB in size.
The best way is to put popular software in Senryu. Top downloaded programs or software that would be good for many users and use a package manager like Synthetic & installoptionalpackage to get the rest.
This would be less of an issue with a full 4GB DVD if I could choose exactly which packages (programs) to install to disk drive. Installing 4GB of software onto my disk drive is not ideal since I may use only 1GB of that.
I was saying would could, not that we would be forced to do so.
BTW I don't disagree.
There is also the option of selling the DVD's for like $2.99 + postage for people with limited bandwidth. Basically it covers the cost of the DVD + a small donation to Haiku bounties.
In this case, from March, 01

To make a bootable ISO from a booted Senryu/Haiku environment, go to the root of the drive (drop and rename the boot floppy and catalog in there) and execute a command like this from the terminal i.e:
Quote:
It'll generate the ISO under /boot/home
Thanks
Of course! but only afer nov.,15 holydays, because I have a lot of terms in my lawsuits..
Stay tuned
good to see you
