I made NateOS for fun and obviously not for serious stuffs.\r\n\r\nhttps://github.com/nthnn/NateOS/assets/90981832/9730782a-9d5a-4625-972d-35414ed1624b\r\n\r\n## What's in the box?\r\n\r\nThe NateOS distro includes the following programs and packages:\r\n\r\n- [bottom](https://github.com/ClementTsang/bottom) - Yet another cross-platform graphical process/system monitor.\r\n- [broot](https://github.com/Canop/broot) - Get an overview of a directory, even a big one.\r\n- [BusyBox](https://www.busybox.net/about.html) - BusyBox combines tiny versions of many common UNIX utilities into a single small executable.\r\n- [GCC 4.6.1-2](https://gcc.gnu.org/) - Toolchain that compiles code, links it with any library dependencies, converts that code to assembly, and then prepares executable files.\r\n- [hex](https://github.com/sitkevij/hex) - Futuristic take on hexdump.\r\n- [loc](https://github.com/cgag/loc) - Count lines of code quickly.\r\n- [NodeJS 0.8.18-1](https://nodejs.org/en) - A cross-platform, open-source JavaScript runtime environment that can run on Windows, Linux, Unix, macOS, and more.\r\n- [OpenSSL](https://github.com/openssl/openssl) - OpenSSL is a robust, commercial-grade, full-featured Open Source Toolkit for the TLS (formerly SSL), DTLS and QUIC (currently client side only) protocols.\r\n- [pfetch](https://github.com/dylanaraps/pfetch) - A pretty system information tool written in POSIX sh.\r\n- [Python3.2](https://www.python.org/) - Python is a high-level, dynamic, general-purpose programming language.\r\n\r\n## Getting Started\r\n\r\n### Building from Start\r\n\r\nTo get started in Ubuntu, follow the steps below.\r\n\r\n1. **Clone the Repository**: Pull the NateOS git repository to your local machine.\r\n\r\n    ```bash\r\n    # Clone NateOS build script\r\n    git clone --depth 1 https://github.com/nthnn/NateOS\r\n    cd NateOS\r\n    ```\r\n\r\n2. **Install `rustup`**: Install `rustup` to manage the Rust toolchain. Follow the instructions provided [here](https://www.rust-lang.org/tools/install). Then add the Linux MUSL target for Rust compiler.\r\n\r\n    ```bash\r\n    # Default installation for `rustup`\r\n    curl --proto '=https' --tlsv1.2 -sSf https://sh.rustup.rs | sh\r\n\r\n    # This will install the Linux MUSL for Rust compiler.\r\n    rustup target add x86_64-unknown-linux-musl\r\n    ```\r\n\r\n3. **Switch to `sudo` Mode**: Switch to `sudo` mode to ensure you have the necessary permissions for installation.\r\n\r\n    ```bash\r\n    sudo su\r\n    ```\r\n\r\n4. **Build NateOS**: Run the build script to compile all necessary binaries, including the Linux kernel and BusyBox. Execute the following command:\r\n\r\n    ```bash\r\n    chmod +x build.sh\r\n    ./build.sh\r\n    ```\r\n\r\n    This will generate `nate_os.iso` in the current working directory upon successful execution.\r\n\r\n### Emulating with QEMU\r\n\r\nAfter successfully building NateOS, you can emulate it using QEMU. Ensure that QEMU, especially `qemu-system-x86_64`, is installed on your system. Run the following command:\r\n\r\n```bash\r\nsudo chmod +x emulate.sh\r\n./emulate.sh\r\n```\r\n\r\n### Cleaning Up\r\n\r\nTo remove all downloaded files and Git repositories created by the `build.sh` script, use the following command:\r\n\r\n```bash\r\nsudo chmod +x clean.sh\r\n./clean.sh\r\n```\r\n","project_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fnthnn%2Fnateos","html_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/projects/github.com%2Fnthnn%2Fnateos","lists_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fnthnn%2Fnateos/lists"}
