Well, if you plan to do a hybrid (which is the official target I
think), there are some setup tasks to consider first. GCC2 w/GCC4
libraries is what you should attempt.
I'm sure you can find these instructions somewhere, but I do know Matt
has put an example together here: http://www.haiku-os.org/node/2549/
Note, the path names aren't terribly important, but if they start with
"generated" svn ignores them for you.
You can also add --use-gcc-pipe to get some speed, and --use-xattr to
avoid possible attribute issues (which can very occasionally occur if
rebuilding without deleting attributes/objects directories between
builds)
Matt has put together a rather detailed definition of the configure
options here: http://www.haiku-os.org/node/2507
After that, you just jam -q @alpha-* where * is some alpha image
target (I even create my own alpha-disk profile pointing to a
partition on my disk, and it automatically picks up the alpha image
profile settings)
