What is Mona?

MonaOS is a free operating system. See detailed information on http://www.monaos.org.

Building and Running Mona

Requirements

• git
• Mingw (See building Mingw below)
• nasm
• mkisofs
• QEMU
• mosh

Building

% cd mona
% ./configure --mingw-prefix=/usr/bin/i586-mingw32msvc- 
% make
% cd ..
% cd contrib
% make
% cd ../mona/tool/qemu
% ./start.sh

Building the cutting-edge Mona

% git clone git://github.com/higepon/mona.git
% cd mona
% git submodule init
% git submodule update
% cd mona
% ./configure --mingw-prefix=/usr/bin/i586-mingw32msvc- 
% make
% cd ..
% cd contrib
% make
% cd ../mona/tool/qemu
% ./start.sh

Building Mingw

If you use Ubuntu, you can get mingw as "apt-get install mingw32". If you use other OS or need the latest gcc, build as follows. You need

• gcc-4.6.1.tar.bz2
• binutils-2.21.1.tar.gz
• w32api-3.17-2-mingw32-dev.tar.lzma
• mingwrt-3.18-mingw32-dev.tar.gz

Build

% export CC=clang    # For OSX only
% export CXX=clang++ # For OSX only
% export PATH=~/mona-mingw/bin/:$PATH
% mkdir ~/mingw
% cd ~/mingw
% tar vxf ~/src/w32api-3.17-2-mingw32-dev.tar.lzma
% tar vxf ~/src/mingwrt-3.18-mingw32-dev.tar.gz
% mkdir -p ~/tmp/build-gcc
% mkdir -p ~/tmp/build-binutils
% cd ~/tmp
% tar vxf ~/src/gcc-4.6.1.tar.bz2
% tar vxf ~/src/binutils-2.21.1.tar.gz
% cd ~/tmp/build-binutils
% ../binutils-2.21.1/configure --prefix=~/mona-mingw --target=i586-mingw32msvc
% make && make install
% cd ~/tmp/build-gcc
% ../gcc-4.6.1/configure --prefix=~/mona-mingw --target=i586-mingw32msvc --disable-nls \
  --disable-shared --disable-multilib --disable-decimal-float --disable-threads \
  --disable-libmudflap --disable-libssp --disable-libgomp --disable-libquadmath \
  --disable-target-libiberty --disable-target-zlib --enable-languages=c,c++ \ 
  --without-ppl --without-cloog  --with-headers=~/mingw/include --with-libs=~/mingw/lib \
  --with-as=~/mona-mingw/bin/i586-mingw32msvc-as --with-ld=~/mona-mingw/bin/i586-mingw32msvc-ld \
  --enable-sjlj-exceptions --enable-version-specific-runtime-libs

And then configure Mona with "export PATH=/mona-mingw/bin/:$PATH; ./configure --mingw-prefix=/mona-mingw/bin/i586-mingw32msvc- && make"
