Betriebssystem im Eigenbau

This repository contains the code I am writing for the lecture "Betriebssystem im Eigenbau" (self-made operating system) by Prof. Dr. Frenz from Kempten University of Applied Sciences.

What you need

For compiling the code you need a special compiler. The Small Java Compiler (SJC), written by Prof. Dr. Frenz, has the ability to compile Java code directly into bootable images. The compiler can be downloaded from here.

How you compile it

The repository can be built by using the sjc.jar within the SJC executables. For compilation simply run java -jar "{PATH_TO_SJC}/sjc.jar" src/ -o boot

How you run it

The compiled image can be run with any emulator (or PC) which support the i386 architecture. For example you can the start the image using QEMU: qemu-system-i386 -boot a -fda BOOT_FLP.IMG
