Darwin 9 Kernel Sources

Looking for the latest xnu sources for Mac OS X? All of the open source components of Mac OS can be found on the www.opensource.apple.com site, including the latest kernel sources corresponding to Mac OS X 10.5.2

Darwin 8.8.1 (Mac OS X 10.4.8) Kernel Posted

I’m pleased to announce the availability of the Darwin 8.8.1 (Mac OS X 10.4.8) kernel source code for both PowerPC- and Intel-based Macintosh computers.

Kernel build tools posted

The extra tools needed to build xnu for Intel have been posted at http://www.macosforge.org/files/kernel-tools-8J2135.root.tar.gz. These include relpath and seg_hack and will install in /usr/local/bin/. The build instructions have also been updated. Enjoy!

Intel Kernel Sources Available!

Source code for the kernel of Mac OS X 10.4.7 for Intel are now available. Several changes were made in order to publish the kernel (xnu) sources. As a result, the kernel built from these sources differs from the one found in the 10.4.7 software update. In order to accommodate these changes, several kernel extensions were also modified and must be downloaded and installed in order to run a kernel built from these sources on Mac OS X 10.4.7 for Intel.

Kernel sources are available as xnu-792.10.96. Stay tuned for detailed instructions for building and installing the kernel for Intel.

Note: these sources do not apply to Mac OS X for PowerPC.
