First Build Success!

Unread post by Bilbo47 » 2025-05-14, 16:59

Buh ZING guh! Finished my first-ever build+package :) Then tested out the browser. Hurdles:
- new laptop with Win11 (previous one, ten years old, quit doing wifi)
- download and install the tools and source
- Avoid build failures from running out of disk space:
- delete cache folders all over the windows partition (60 GB with now 1G free) Source+build-output takes 8.7GB
- move chrome-flavor browser profile to data partition (32 GB with now 12G free) Tools take 6.1GB
- put in the time to follow instructions
Old dog, new tricks :)

I also made my first Pale Moon build today and it took 11 minutes to build. :D

I managed to compile it about a year ago on Raspberry Pi 5. May attempt to build the latest version in the near future.

There was some oddity in behavior of my bank's website on this build specifically, the script hung on login page and couldn't login. The site worked fine on amd64 build.
