Hello Eric, Harmony VM may be built by means of gcc which in turn allows cross-platform compilation. This means that you can build the first JVM snapshot using a supported platform, transfer the binary to a platform of your choice, and then continue development there.
In other words, it is a common hatching practice to get chicken from eggs by means of a hen. But in our case a hen can be replaced with a penguin. Thanks.
