You may be able to cross-compile to make programs for it, kind of like building Android on a pc, you can compile for the 3ds's arm based soc using gcc and a Linux x64_86/x86 machine.

I'm already working on a build with make, X, binutils, etc. It's only not done due to issues packing it.

Speaking of, @xerpi, what version of as did you compile with? Every version either tells me it doesn't support --64 or it doesn't support -EL. (Running Deb x86_64, everything updated)

I use the armv7-eabihf toolchain from https://toolchains.bootlin.com

Any suggestions for things to compile into the boot image? I've got things like make, gcc, binutils, Xorg (also fluxbox), untested SD R/W support, etc. going, but what else would y'all like to see? There's no network access and SD R/W support will probably be really dumb and broken, so keep that in mind.


EDIT: Well, "going".

I've updated the build instructions, if you have Linux x86-64 I'd recommend downloading a a precompiled armv6-eabihf toolchain.

  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    i thought everybody knew cocktails are like 75% ice
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Yeah but not like this.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It's not like they're complaining that their Slurpee is 99% ice or something, but if the cocktail calls for "shot of vodka, shot of vermouth, shot of gin, shot of Campari, three shots of juice, squirt of lemon" and ends up being a thimbleful of booze, that's a problem.
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    the funny thing is cocktails in norway are only allowed to have 1 20ml shot of booze
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    so..... yeah
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    we're used to only having a thimbleful of booze
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Booo.
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    same thing if you want whisky on the rocks or something, you can't get a double
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    but you could buy as many shots of whisky (or anything else) as you want and ask for a glass of ice and pour them in
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    it's dumb
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Maybe.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    There was a comparison of the number of Ibuprofen poisonings before and after they limited the maximum dosage per box or per pill (i'll look that up). No limit on the number of boxes you can still buy as many as you want, so people argued it was pointless.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    But the number of (accidental) poisonings dropped because drinking an entire package of ibuprofen pills went from "I need a new liver" to "I need a new box of Ibuprofen".
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Here we have ketoprofen that used to be prescription-only because of the risk of toxic dosages, but then they halved the dose per pill and sell them in bottles of six pills apiece instead of twenty and it doesn't need a prescription any more. Yes you can buy more than one bottle but people simply don't.
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Usually accidentally overdose of ibuprofen here is from people taking like cold medicine then ibuprofen for a headache and the combination is over what they need
