kRnel

A small 64-bit, Multiboot kernel written in Rust.

Dependencies

Build

  • clang (capable of cross-compiling for x86-64)
  • nasm
  • rust (0.8)
  • ninja
  • xorriso

Runtime

  • a Multiboot-compliant bootloader

Emulation

  • qemu
  • ninja

Build Instructions

Linux

Some distributions have compilers that will work just fine out-of-the-box, while some don't.

$ sudo yaourt -S clang nasm qemu rust ninja libisoburn
$ cd path/to/rustboot
$ ./configure
$ ninja

OSX

You should use Homebrew for as much as possible. The configure script autogenerates binutils for you because OSX has a broken version by default. Please note that this assumes you already have clang installed via Xcode.

$ brew install nasm qemu ninja rust xorriso
$ cd path/to/rustboot
$ ./configure
$ ninja

Emulation Instructions

$ ninja run
