DistccPPCKnoppix is a Knoppix distro that comes with distcc servers to support the compilation of Linux x86 and OSX ppc.
DistccPPCKnoppix is a Knoppix distribution that can revolutionize your compiling processes. With distcc servers for both Linux x86 and OSX ppc compiling, it enables you to utilize your additional x86 computers to build Linux x86 and OSX PPC binaries. Thanks to this, you can now speed up your development without disrupting your work.
After coming across guides like "Building a Darwin cross-compiler for use with distcc and fink" and "HOWTO: Use Gentoo Distcc Host to cross-compile for OSX," I quickly built my own cross-compiler to use with Apple OSX development. As with most people, I have more x86 hardware than ppc; thus, using distccPPCKnoppix proved to be a useful alternative for Linux x86 compilation.
Adding the ppc cross-compiler to distccKnoppix was straightforward, thanks to the Knoppix Remastering Howto. Upon booting, two distccd demons begin on separate ports: port 3632 for the x86 compiler and port 3633 for the ppc compiler. This process has made a significant difference in improving OSX compiling and development at a lower cost.
For all Apple developers, this software provides an excellent opportunity to utilize your x86 hardware efficiently. Thanks to its amazing features, distccPPCKnoppix is a must-have addition to your compilation process.
