Linux ABI-compatible kernel written in Rust

📦 Build dependencies

To compile GalaxyOS kernel and create basic OS ISO image you need to install following dependencies:

• python3 (to run build.py script)
• nasm
• rust nightly toolchain (with rust-src component)
• grub
• xorriso
• GNU mtools

You can install them with following commands:

Debian-based distributions:

apt install python3 nasm grub-common xorriso mtools curl   # as root
curl --proto '=https' --tlsv1.2 -sSf https://sh.rustup.rs | sh -s -- -y
rustup toolchain install nightly
rustup component add rust-src

Arch-based distributions:

pacman -S python3 nasm rustup grub xorriso mtools   # as root
rustup toolchain install nightly
rustup component add rust-src

⚙️ Compiling

Clone GalaxyOS repository and change working directory to its location.

To compile use build.py Python (3.6+) script. You can change _*_BINARY variales inside the script to specify non-standard executable locations.

chmod +x build.py
./build.py
# or
python3 build.py

▶️ Running

The kernel binary and basic OS iso are located in build/ directory after compiling.

If you have qemu installed, you can run basic OS in the qemu virtual machine with:

qemu-system-x86_64 -cdrom build/galaxyos.iso
