This is an experimental spin-off / distribution of ToaruOS which includes no third-party components.
The bootloader is a simple El Torito "no-emulation" CD bootloader. It is not guaranteed to work on real hardware, but has been tested in QEMU, Bochs, and VirtualBox.
The userspace includes a work-in-progress C standard library, the ToaruOS native libraries, the compositor (using only in-house graphics routines), and various other first-party utilities and applications.
## Building
Build a full ToaruOS, activate its toolchain, copy the kernel to `cdrom/kernel` and modules to `cdrom/mod` and you should be able to run `make`.
