Hello,
Here's the shell script I use to rebuild the Factor vm. Mainly for folks new
to Factor and UNIX. Change IMAGE and TARGET as needed. Before building, it
will make a backup of your existing boot image, run-time image and f binary.
Then it will download a boot image from Slava's server, compile the vm, and
generate a new image. It makes a copy of the resulting pristine image named
factor.image.0. This is so that if you mess up your image, you don't have to
hassle with generating another image from the boot image.
#!/bin/sh
IMAGE=boot.image.pentium4
TARGET=linux-x86
datestamp () {
date +%Y-%m-%d-%H-%M
}
DATESTAMP=`datestamp`
mv $IMAGE $IMAGE-$DATESTAMP
mv f f-$DATESTAMP
mv factor.image factor.image-$DATESTAMP
wget factorcode.org/images/latest/$IMAGE
make clean
make $TARGET
./f $IMAGE
cp factor.image factor.image.0
