Get the build.
BoxOS will publish bootable images, the UEFI loader and the kernel binary here as soon as the first release is cut. Until then, the source builds and runs.
not released yet
No public binaries — the kernel is still pre-release.
BoxOS is in active development. There is no stable build yet, so we deliberately don't ship one. When the first tagged release is ready, this page will fetch its assets directly from GitHub Releases.
/* TODO */ Replace this section with a real release once v0.1.0 is cut.
Build from source
Until a binary release is published, the recommended path is building from the source tree.
git clone https://github.com/skripsaha/boxos
cd boxos
make clean && make
make run # single core
make run CORES=4 MEM=16G # SMP testToolchain: x86_64-elf-gcc and QEMU 7+.
Run it
Once the build is ready (build/boxos.iso in the repo tree), the fastest way to try BoxOS is QEMU:
qemu-system-x86_64 \
-cdrom build/boxos.iso \
-m 1G \
-smp 4 \
-display sdl
