For now, Torus targets only x86-64, though multi-architecture support is planned.\n\n## Current Status\n\nVery early development.\n\nThe kernel sets up a minimal serial-backed console, basic interrupt handling, a PIT-based timer tick, and a higher half memory layout before entering an idle loop. The framebuffer test pattern is temporarily disabled.\n\n## Building\n\nA Linux environment is required.\n\n\u003c!-- Worded it this way so there is no need to reword it once Torus actually targets other architectures. --\u003e\nThe build system requires a cross toolchain for the target architecture with ELF output.\n\n### Prerequisites\n\nYou will need the following installed:\n\n- GCC\n- GNU Binutils\n- GNU Make\n\nMinimum supported tool versions have not yet been determined. Using a reasonably recent toolchain is recommended.\n\nClone the repo and run `make config`. After you have configured the build system, simply run `make`.\n\n```sh\ngit clone https://github.com/prbmic19/torus\ncd torus\nmake config\nmake\n```\n\n## Running\n\nYou will need QEMU installed.\n\nRunning Torus should be as simple as `make run` (it will build first if needed).\n\n## License\n\nThis project is licensed under the GNU General Public License v3.0.
