This is a toy osdev project. The aim is to write a boot loader and kernel from scratch.

At the moment, it's more a basic build environment for osdev projects. It includes scripts to build and install a cross-toolchain. Works on OS X and Linux.

Components

The following components exist, possibly in other branches:

• bootloader.mbr86

Building

To build the bootloader, install a ct-ng toolchain:

$ tools/run install-ct-ng

This downloads and builds the cross-toolchain required to build the bootloader.

Build all other components using SCons:

$ scons

Dependencies

• GNU coreutils
• wget
• gcc
• SCons
• PyYAML

Debugging
