Note: Anyone know how to convert Platform Compatibility HowTO source into wiki language, so we can work on others' effort?

Following are procedures for installing GNUstep on different Operating Systems.


AIX

To be provided.


BSD-based systems

To keep this list as brief as possible, information about these systems can be found here.


GNU/Hurd

GNUstep also runs on GNU/Hurd on the GNUMach kernel.


HP/UX


Irix

To be provided.


Linux-based systems

To keep this list as brief as possible, information about these systems can be found here.


Solaris

Intel

Move over to http://www.blastwave.org/ or http://www.sunfreeware.com/ to download and install all required dependencies. (Personally, I recommend the packages from BlastWave which usually are quite up-to-date. Interestingly, they already offer GNUstep-make as a package.)

If you follow the installation instructions for GNUstep, you should not run into any problems.

However, if you want to select Window Maker from the X login, you need to do some additional editing. Check out http://www.gunfleet.com/solaris/winman.htm for that.

Sparc


Windows

Cygwin

To be provided.

MingW

See Installation on Windows for details on MingW setup. Also look at precompiled binary installer, available from GNUstep's ftp site.

SFU

Microsoft's Service For Unix.


Others

To keep this list as brief as possible, information about these systems can be found here.
