=My Fox Is On Fire=
+A lesson in opensource exploitation. =The Work=
==Hardware & Software==
At the start of this exercise I had literally no idea of where to start, all previous "builds" that I had done consisted of:
<pre>
1. Click .exe
2. Click "Next" 5 or 6 Times
3. Poof - you have software
</pre>
Noticing that the deadline was looming, I headed to where any other self-respecting procrastinator would go - other people's work. After flipping through a few people's pages, including the popular user[[User:Elichak | Elichak's]] page, I visited [[User:Sherman | Sherman]]. Having worked with Sherman before, I knew that we had similar home configurations, and as a result hopefully would have similar steps for building the fox. Thankfully I was right, and the steps outlined in Sherman's method worked very well on my home pc. The one error I encountered during the build:
was due to an oversight in the setup.bat file wherein Sherman had added a further file structure to his moztools that I had not implemented, a quick change got me running again. The build itself took ~2 hours, with the matrix style goop flying across my Cygwin window at an alarming rate.
