Anyone Keep MinocaOS Toolchains?

1 points by anta40 ↗ HN
A few years ago, there's an open source OS project which was pretty active: https://github.com/minoca/os

The toolchains to build it were provided (https://www.minocacorp.com/download/#toolchain), unfortunately the website is down and no way to reach the maintainers.

Anyone keep the toolchains?

The pre-built toolchains were there, but the readme in their GitHub states you can still build the toolchains yourself using this repo: https://gitlab.com/minoca/third-party and possibly some things especially for Windows using this repo: https://gitlab.com/minoca/tools

(Neither of those are mirrored on their GitHub.)

That said, the Wayback Machine has one of the prebuilt toolchains, for macOS, mirrored here: https://web.archive.org/web/20170412065030if_/http://www.min...

Other downloads in the Wayback Machine can be seen here: https://web.archive.org/web/*/http://www.minocacorp.com/down...*

Ah thank you. Yes I know the gitlab repo, but still looking for prebuilt binaries (not interesting in building them from source).

Now I'm at 2017: https://web.archive.org/web/20170101000000*/http://www.minoc...

Couldn't found any working Linux binary here...

You may have luck running the macOS binaries on Linux using Darling: https://github.com/darlinghq/darling or in a Darwin or macOS VM?

Fortunately I mostly work on macOS nowadays. And perhaps I'll built the Linux toolchain on next weekend.
