Porting Firefox to elf target

[Mars Ultor]

I'm not entirely sure how to do this. What Linux (or Windows/OS X) system calls does Firefox rely on? If those are implemented and the required libraries built, would Firefox work?

Also, is there any way to build so that no window chrome/toolbars can be opened?

You'll probably have a better chance to get an answer in the mozilla.dev.platform newsgroup: https://groups.google.com/forum/m/#!for ... v.platform

Moving to Third-Party Builds where people here may have the necessary insight.

It works for me out-of-the-box. You just need gcc and make I think.

Download the firefox.source.tar.bz2 from mozilla ftp (example) then:

bunzip2 firefox.source.tar.bz2
tar -xvf firefox.source.tar
mkdir build
cd build
../mozilla-release/configure
make
make install

The binary should be in /usr/local/lib/firefox.

The make part takes 4.5 hours on my Dell Latitude D410, and used 706MB of RAM to build libxul.so at the end.
