# uefi-app-x64
Example Rust project for building UEFI applications.
## Requirements
- [rustup](https://rustup.rs/)
- Rust source (`rustup add component rust-src --toolchain nightly`)
- Xargo (install or update with `cargo install -f xargo`)
## Building
### Windows
```batch
set "RUST_TARGET_PATH=%cd%" && xargo build --release --target uefi-app-x64
```
### Linux
```shell
RUST_TARGET_PATH=$PWD xargo build --release --target uefi-app-x64
```
## Running with VirtualBox
### Setup (only done once)
1. Create a new VM of type `Other/Unknown (64-bit)`, using the existing blank hard disk provided — or create a new virtual hard disk and format it as GPT.
2. Open the settings for the VM, go to _System > Motherboard_ and enable EFI.
### Copy the app and run
1. Mount the VHD.
2. Copy `target/uefi-app-x64/release/uefi-app-x64.efi` to the root of the VHD.
3. Unmount the VHD.
4. Boot the VM, type `fs0:\uefi-app-x64.efi` at the prompt and press enter to run the app.
