Another project…
The focus of Bryant and my senior design project is going to be porting the LOUD (LCSEE Over Ubuntu Distribution) operating system used at WVU, to the newest version of Ubuntu – Jaunty Jackalope. Once its been ported, the plan is to package the whole thing in a virtual machine // cocoa app for OS X. The last group worked on getting it on Windows through the Nullsoft installer — but a lot of people have expressed an interest in getting it over to Mac. I’m still not sure which virtual machine we’re going to go with — but it’s gotta be open source.
So far, we’ve created the necessary Ubuntu repositories for the packaging process in which we’ll port all of the software used in labs to ljaunty. Mac’s packaging system is pretty boss — as is the Xcode IDE.
