it boots! Felix was able to build a bootable CD for OD 7.2.1. It only boots x86 right now, but PPC should be close behind. The "fix" was to mark the kernel as 7.2.0 instead of 7.2.1. There is apparently a version incompatibility with some pieces of IOKit. We'll have to track those down and update the xml files to reference 7.2.1. 9:48:39 AM    comment []

Slouching towards OD 7.2.1 Working this holiday weekend with my buddy Felix to get OpenDarwin 7.2.1 in shape for release by WWDC. I have successfully compiled and built rpm's for most of the broken projects listed in an earlier entry.
