How to setup!!

This guide contains tutorials for both Linux and Windows 11

Linux 🐧

1. Clone repository

git clone "https://github.com/ivinexo1/FurOS/"

2. Install QEMU (for Debian : apt-get install qemu-system, Arch: pacman -S qemu-full) or build it yourself

wget https://download.qemu.org/qemu-10.0.2.tar.xz
tar xvJf qemu-10.0.2.tar.xz
cd qemu-10.0.2
./configure
make

3. Install NASM (for Debian: apt-get install nasm, Arch: pacman -S nasm)
4. Install i386-elf-gcc (for Debian: add this later, Arch: yay i386-elf-gcc or paru i368-elf-gcc)
5. Navigate to the repository and run ./makeNrun.sh

Windows 11 🪟

1. Clone repository

git clone "https://github.com/ivinexo1/FurOS/"

2. Install QEMU
3. Install NASM

winget install nasm -i

4. Add QEMU as an env path
5. Install WSL wsl --install, check for available distros wsl -l -o
6. Install archlinux (optional, but that's what this tutorial is focusing on) wsl --install -d archlinux
7. Install a text editor (doesn't matter which) sudo pacman -S nano

sudo pacman -S --needed git base-devel

8. Install yay

git clone https://aur.archlinux.org/yay.git
cd yay

9. (Just make sure you're not in root but some user)

makepkg -si

10. Go to sudo nano /etc/locale.gen and uncomment #en_US.UTF-8 UTF-8 (remove #)
11. sudo locale-gen
12. Before installing i386-elf-gcc make sure you have ENOUGH MEMORY!! It finally worked for me when I set it to 6gb
13. Check available filesize df -h, memory can be changed here C:\Users\[your name]\.wslconfig

sudo mount -o remount,size=6G /tmp

14. Before you install i386-elf-gcc just know that WSL is going to be using like 90% of your CPU
15. yay i386-elf-gcc and enter 1 (for the other options just press enter)
16. Once it's done check i386-elf-gcc -v
17. If it's installed navigate to killmeOS (running ./makeNrun.sh is optional, you can also copy the inside of the file and paste everything except line 15)

cd '/mnt/c/Users/[your name]/Documents/GitHub/FurOS/build'
./makeNrun.sh

18. Open nasmpath.bat (can be found here: C:\Program Files\NASM)

cd C:\Users\[your name]\Documents\GitHub\killmeOS\build
qemu-system-i386 -drive format=raw,file="OS.bin",index=0,if=floppy -m 128M

19. If you've done everthing correctly, You should see QEMU instance running killmeOS!! Also make sure to join our discord server >:3
