Re: Bootable Test CD

yeah...I want this to happen but I want it to happen on the
developers' terms. Give me that test cd and i'll see if I can help
test it...i don't like to be on the Haiku sidelines forever.

Haiku self-hosting.

Sorry for the cross-posting, but as it is good news I thought I would 
share it with you guys. Today I committed r24720 and, with that, I was 
able to compile Haiku inside itself without the neewd for any hacks or 
reboots or anything like that (using VMWare with 1 Gb of memory 
available to the VM). I also run the generated image in VMWare and it 
booted (I didn't test it much tough).

Although this is April's 1st (and some of you will probably think it is 
a joke), this means that we are able to self-host now and pending 
something else that we may find during testing, this means we are 
self-hosting as of today.

You can start the fireworks! :)

Ps: Juts wnated to point out that this would not be possible without the 
huge amount of time the developers have spent on getting this working 
and, specifically, the amount of time Axel spent fixing VM/cache bugs 
and the amount Ingo spent getting the build system working inside Haiku. 
So kudos to them.

I already congratulated everyone in #haiku and on OSNews, but I'd also  
like to do just that on the m-l. So, congratulations to everyone  
involved!

Oh and Bruno, I guess I didn't make OSN look like an idiot after all :P.
