A personal experimental OS project (just for fun :-)

to compile the OS, follow these steps:

check prerequisites:

• you are using GNU/Linux
• C and C++ compiler: gcc g++
• genisoimage: make kernel/OS iso image(a replacement of mkisofs)
• python: to do some configuration work
• qemu/bochs: test OS on virtual machines

note: the grub bootloader is also needed, its binary can be found in build/prebuilt-binaries/

instructions

1. compile the kernel and generate a bootable CD image

make all

note: genisoimage is required, if you want to rebuild it, type make rebuild

2. test/debug the OS

test

make run

note: qemu-system-x86_64 is required

make debug

note: bochs debugger is required
