Hey,

this looks rather strange as RTErrConvertFromErrno.o and errmsgdata.h (which also depends on a file in Runtime/common/err) are generated successfully.

Could you please check if the file is indeed missing? If I do

ls -1 <genode dir>/ports/contrib/virtualbox-4.2.16/src/VBox/Runtime/common/err/

I get

Makefile.kup RTErrConvertFromErrno.cpp RTErrConvertToErrno.cpp errinfo.cpp errmsg.cpp errmsg.sed errmsgcom.sed errmsgxpcom.cpp

Could it be that your ports/download folder is actual a symbolic link ? I remember have seen this for this case. Please try just to re-run your 'make' command as quick fix.

Hope it helps,

Alex.

I'll see if I can do a test with the patch in place.

Can you please also tell me what packages virtualbox needs in the libports?

Here is what I have so far, but am trying to keep the whole build to minimal sizes.

cd ../libports make prepare PKG="x86emu libc zlib sdl libpng stdcxxcd lwip"

Kind Regards and have a great day, Lonnie

Hello Lonnie,

you revealed a subtle bug in our library make files for virtualbox, which only emerges when doing non-parallel builds. Could you please give the attached patch a try - it worked for me pretty well and is on its way to origin/staging.

Happy hacking

Hi Christian,

I think that I have not done this correctly as when I tried"

~/genode/patch -p0 < vbox-lib.patch

then I am asked about which file to patch.

Have not had much experience with patching in the past. Sorry.

I am going to start with a fresh genode source tree from GIT as well.

Kind Regards and have a great day, Lonnie

Hi Christian,

I was able to get VirtualBox to compile and am working to see if I can test it as it does not look like it will work in Qemu. For this part, I think that I will just get the iso and boot it from a CDROM onto a test machine.

As it also seems that VirtualBox may not have all of the features implemented that would be in the normal VB 4.2.x release beyond the networking and SMP which Norman has already mentioned, I was wondering what else might be missing, or perhaps the converse as to what might be implemented like VB CDROM's etc....

My next goals are to get a bit more familiar with Genode + NOVA for the demo's and other things like the Nitpicker GUI, etc.... I want to compile up some other things that are in the current release and test them out to get more of a feel for how Genode does thing. I also was looking to see if Genode has some type of file explorer available. I guess that I could use a terminal and mount in a filesystem, or something.

I will also be exploring the older NOVA code as I want to find out how they did some of the things in the NOVA 0.3 demo like showing the "tutor" and switching between the VMM's via [win] + F1 - F12 or LArrow and RArrow into fullscreen for each VMM.

Anyway, it looks like I am off to a good start and I really appreciate all of your's and Normans help.

Cheers, Lonnie

It seems your command line is wrong. Please try

patch -p1 < vbox-lib.patch or patch -p1 -i vbox-lib.patch

Please also have a look at 'git help apply'.
