I think SmartOS can reasonably stand in for Illumos and Solaris x86_64 and can run Ubuntu x86_64 as a KVM guest. > Linux/arm and Linux/ppc64 > (by Karel), FreeBSD/i386 and FreeBSD/amd64 (by myself), and Mateusz > has written me about setting up a Linux x86 builder on Gentoo.

Cool, that's easier. I usually use AlainODea or alainodea as my base username, but that's immaterial. The two build slaves I intend to run are: - x86_64 Solaris (on SmartOS) - x86_64 Linux (on Ubuntu as a SmartOS KVM guest) > >> Once I have that working I'll document the current process for volunteering >> and >> setting up build slaves. > > I think this has been already covered on the GHC Developers' wiki, there: > > https://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/wiki/Builder Good point. It needs some minor tweaks since the volunteers need to request a username and password by providing their OS and architecture to the list rather than sending their username and password to the list. > Note that this page is also linked from the front page of the wiki. _______________________________________________ ghc-devs mailing list [email protected] http://www.haskell.org/mailman/listinfo/ghc-devs
