Dependencies

DepthOS requires GNU Make, GCC and NASM to build. And QEMU to run.

Build

Kernel and userland requires a custom toolchain compiled for the platform. To use it, set CC and LD environment variables when running make.

Kernel

To just build the kernel, run make build.

Applications

All applications can be build using make apps.

However, each application has it's build system, and might require additional configuration. See application's README for more details

Generating the image

DepthOS requires a hard drive image to run, it contains all the necessary data and programs. To generate it, you can use tools/sync.sh script. It will copy everything from disk-fs folder (which is automatically created when you build applications). If SYSROOT environment variable is set, it will also copy all files from there.

The resulting image is located in the _disk_image.raw file.

ISO

Before running DepthOS, you will also need to build an ISO. You can do so by using tools/iso.sh script.

Running

To run DepthOS you can use tools/qemu.sh script, it provides all necessary kernel parameters. Although currently you will also need to pass -audiodev pa,id=pa -device sb16,audiodev=pa to it. This will be fixed soon.
