ParadoxOS

This is an hobbyist Operating System Project currently in very early stage. The design has not been finalized yet, hence no formal design docs is available.

At the moment, the aim is to initialize the kernel properly to utilize modern system features.

Tools

• Freestanding toolchain
• GNU Make
• Grub
• qemu
• Linux (Obviously)

Compiling Freestanding Toolchain

Execute the script toolchain.sh

How to build

Once you have the requried tools.

    $ ./setup.sh iso

This will build an iso file called paradoxOS.iso. This is a binary complaint with multiboot standard, and is compiled using grub. That means, it can be simply booted up.

Though using an emulator is recommended.

    $ qemu-system-i686 -cdrom paradoxOS.iso
