VeOS

An experimental OS using Rust. Currently in a very early stage.

Compiling

In order to compile VeOS you'll need the following:

• Rust
• xargo (can be installed with cargo install xargo, then you also need to run rustup component add rust-src)
• nasm
• ld
• grub (in order to make it bootable)

Then you can

• run make to create the folder structure of the OS at target/.
• run make iso to create a bootable image at image.iso.
• run make run to run the OS in qemu (if you have it installed).

• Philipp Oppermann and his "Writing an OS in Rust" blog.
• The contributors of the spin crate.
• Eric Kidd's blog.
• The OSDev wiki.
• The Redox project.
