Building OS

You will need following packages to compile and run the os:

• rust (rustup)
• nasm
• qemu
• grub2
• parted
• docker (for userspace docker build)

Building:

git clone https://github.com/rafalmiel/cykusz-rs.git
git submodule update --init --recursive

rustup override set nightly
rustup component add rust-src
make

./disk-scripts/create_disk.sh

Building Userspace

It is recommended to use docker for building userspace for stable environment.

Using docker

./sysroot/make_docker_image.sh
./sysroot/toolchain_docker.sh

Using host

./sysroot/toolchain.sh

Running

qemu

make run

bochs

make bochs

VirtualBox

# Run only once to import the image into VirtualBox
./create_vbox_image.sh

make vbox
