Overview

zorroOS is a hobby operating system written in Zig, currently targeting x86_64 PCs.

Building

Building zorroOS is simple.
First, ensure that you have the following depenedencies:

  • zig Version: 0.11.0 if its been released, otherwise master (Please open an issue if the specificied version isn't building zorroOS correctly)
  • nasm
  • xorriso
  • git

Then, clone the repository

$ git clone https://github.com/TalonFox/zorroOS --recursive
$ cd zorroOS

After cloning it, simply run make iso and a ISO named zorroOS.iso will be generated.
You can then run this using an virtual machine/emulator such as QEMU, Bochs, VirtualBox, or VMWare. You can also flash this onto a USB drive and boot it onto real hardware, if you would rather do that.

    About the name

    I just was curious about the name you chose... I also have an OS called owl-os... You've started your project 7 days ago and I would like to know what was the inspiration for your OS name. Does it have something to do with the fact that you recently stared my project?

    Also, it's impressive the amount of code you've written in only 7 days... Did you copy/steal code from somewhere or someone? Just curious. Note that if the original code has a license such as GPLv3 you have to license your code with that license too!

    Really cool name, I also liked the name when I chose it. Bye 🙂

    Hello I'm using 0.11.0-dev.3898+35a8e8a06, and this function is renamed. Could you clarify which version of zig you're using. Also by the way it's better to stick to some zig version that zvm has provided:

      0.7.1
  0.6.0
  0.4.0
  0.1.1
