iLiad colinux + scratchbox ?

ericshliao · 01-27-2009, 09:15 PM

I just found that there is a wonderful thing - colinux. I didn't know it until now. Currently, I have to do cross-compile in Scratchbox/Linux/VMware/WinXP, I wonder if I can do it in Scratchbox/Linux+colinux/WinXP. I am going to try it. If you know anything about colinux, please comment or advise.

CoLinux is really amazing. I can use Linux application in Windows XP without a virtual machine emulator. I think it's time to move my cross-compile environment to CoLinux based Debian or Ubuntu and remove that huge virtual machine built in VMWare.

For people who want a fast experience of the power of coLinux, there is a "portable Ubuntu" project that provides pre-built Ubuntu based on coLinux with GUI properly configured. Users won't notice they are using Linux.

Have a look at the andlinux.
It is built on top of colinux.

It was formely released as a developement platform for GP2X.
