@ -3,6 +3,14 @@ Minimal bootstrap code for x86, Sparc and MIPS
## x86:
# Summary
Uses a 2-stage bootloader to boot from FAT12 floppy disk.
Stage 1 loader loads stage 2 loader from the floppy and jumps to it.
Stage 2 loader initializes protected mode, detects system memory, loads the kernel from the floppy, and eventually calls "kmain" function in kernel.c.
# Building
Run "make" in "x86" directory.
The boot image "boot.img" is generated under "out" directory.
