[x] Build a kernel\n - [x] Implement an init binary\n - [x] Construct the initramfs\n - [x] Package and build a bootable disk image\n - [x] Implement a bare minimum libc and libc runtime\n - [x] Statically link binaries with our own libc\n - [ ] Implement BSS zero-ing in crt0\n - [ ] Implement a basic terminal emulator\n - [ ] Try and port some simple software\n - [ ] Mount a persistent filesystem\n - [ ] Implement an installer in the live image?\n - [ ] Implement an x-server implementation?\n - [ ] Implement dynamic linking support?\n - [ ] Implement a bootloader?\n\n## Building\n\nWith the dependencies installed, the image can be build with the default cmake target.\n\n```sh\nmkdir build \u0026\u0026 cd build\ncmake ..\nmake\n```\n\nBuiding with docker (or podman) is also supported.\n\n```sh\npodman build -t dolly-linux .\npodman cp dolly-linux:/distbuild/build/x86_64-dolly-linux.iso .\n```\n\nNote: Build has only been tested on arm64 macOS, so cross-compilation is the default behavior.\n\n## Developing\n\nWith the [Dev Containers](https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=ms-vscode-remote.remote-containers)\nextension installed in VSCode, the project will automatically be mounted in a development container with\nall the necessary dependencies installed. From here, you can attach a terminal to the container (or use\nthe built-in terminal) to run `cmake` and build the image, and changes to the source will be reflected\non the host filesystem.\n","project_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fryanwebber%2Fdolly-linux","html_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/projects/github.com%2Fryanwebber%2Fdolly-linux","lists_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fryanwebber%2Fdolly-linux/lists"}
