#+TITLE: PowerNex - ReadMe | ||
#+AUTHOR: Dan Printzell | ||

* PowerNex | ||
PowerNex is a kernel written in the [[https://dlang.org][D Programming Language]]. | ||
The goal is to have a whole OS written in D, where PowerNex powers the core. | ||
|
||
The name PowerNex comes from the words `power` and `next`. A kernel to power the | ||
next generation of hardware. | ||
** Building | ||
It requires a crosscompiler, see link below for download. | ||
It uses my build system called [[https://github.com/Vild/Wild][Wild]]. | ||
It expects the wild binary to be located in the root directory of PowerNex, then | ||
you just need to run `./build` to build. | ||
|
||
*Please note that Wild is under development and the compiled result may not work!* | ||
*This means that it is recommended to use the prebuilt executable below* | ||
|
||
[[https://mega.nz/#!cx913RZZ!i3lHemFSPRT5kgdbGjS9YgXLKx0bV84Jg50cOYOdxUg][Prebuild toolchain (wild and compilers) for (Arch)Linux x64]] | ||
|
||
One tip is to run `source env.sh`, this adds shortcuts for building and running. | ||
`b` compiles and runs PowerNex in qemu, `v` just builds PowerNex. | ||
** System requirements | ||
- A 64bit processor | ||
- At least 32 MiB of ram | ||
|
||
*Recommended & Supported Virtual Machines* | ||
- QEMU | ||
- VirtualBox | ||

** Thanks to | ||
- Adam D. Ruppe - For his [[http://arsdnet.net/dcode/minimal.zip][minimal.zip]], which contains a bare bone minimal d runtime. Which this kernel is based on. | ||
- Bloodmanovski - For his D Kernel [[https://github.com/Bloodmanovski/Trinix][Trinix]], His files for booting x64 really helped me a lot. | ||
