This IMHO would be the deciding factor -- no POSIX environment, no Gentoo. Because you'd end up rewriting 99% of portage just to make it work, not to mention porting all the other apps.

I don't see Gentoo OS/2 being an overwhelming sensation, given OS/2's popularity at the moment. But it would be interesting nevertheless. _________________ Stuart Longland (a.k.a Redhatter, VK4MSL) I haven't lost my mind - it's backed up on a tape somewhere.

How good is the POSIX environment in OS/2? This IMHO would be the deciding factor -- no POSIX environment, no Gentoo. As a start, I'm in the process of evaluating just how 'good' the POSIX environment is. It's certainly better than 'no POSIX.'

Is completely current, and a fairly large number of apps, including XFree86, have been ported. So it seems to work, with some patching. I believe that a port of Gentoo will make it easier to keep the apps current, and easier, with USE variables, to compile in specific features such as (which puts X on the OS/2 desktop).

It's a better POSIX system than the Interix subsystem that I'm trying to get Gentoo ported to. ( see the ) Certainly, let us know how it goes. Some of the issues I've had to deal with (i.e. Hacking Portage to recognise the 'Interix' OS, and compiling portage in the first place) certainly would also be issues on OS/2, but certainly these are not severe blockages. Some of the problems I'm striking with Portage on Interix, seem to be similar to ones I've hit using Gentoo/MIPS with a 64-bit (n32) userland.

Hrmm, I see myself throwing OS/2 back on a machine before long. Let us know how it goes.

I may be able to test as I have an installation of Warp 4 FP15. Simon Vannarath.

I may be able to test as I have an installation of Warp 4 FP15. Yes EMX is the set of libraries needed for the POSIX environment in OS/2. There are a number of outdated web sites around making claims about the latest version, but apparently it is really 0.9d, fix 4. It can be downloaded from. I am using eComStation 1.1, but all you need is EMX which should work on OS/2 2.0 and up. Edit: Many POSIX commands require UCONV.DLL, which is provided by fixpaks. I am not sure if OS/2 v2.0 has such a fixpak.

Also using Portage is pretty pointless without networking, so Warp 3 Connect or higher would be required unless you have a licensed networking add-on package such as the client for Warp Server.

For those also interested in trying here is how I did it. Edit: Updated instructions 12/4/2006. Start with a version of OS/2 at a fixpak level that includes UCONV.DLL. Best to use the latest fixpak level.
