For testing out my os during development, I usually use
|
|
[Bochs](http://bochs.sourceforge.net)
|
|
|
|
I also usually compile Bochs into two versions. One that has the debugger
|
|
option enabled and one that runs entirely in a command line environment.
|
|
|
|
Let's go!
|
|
|
|
$ curl -L -O http://sourceforge.net/projects/bochs/files/bochs/2.5.1/bochs-2.5.1.tar.gz
|
|
$ tar -zxvf bochs-2.5.1.tar.gz
|
|
$ mkdir build-bochs
|
|
$ cd build-bochs
|
|
$ ../bochs-2.5.1/configure --enable-smp --enable-cpu-level=6 --enable-all-optimizations --enable-pci --enable-vmx --enable-logging --enable-fpu --enable-sb16=dummy --enable-cdrom --disable-plugins --disable-docbook --with-term
|
|
$ make all
|
|
$ make install
|
|
|
|
And that's the terminal version.
|
|
|
|
### Important note
|
|
This configure line won't actually work. I'll update with the new one as soon as
|
|
I can.
|
|
|
|
Now we move this to *bochs-term* and compile the version with the debugger.
|
|
|
|
$ mv /usr/local/bin/bochs /usr/local/bin/bochs-term
|
|
$ rm *
|
|
$ ../bochs-2.5.1/configure --enable-smp --enable-cpu-level=6 --enable-all-optimizations --enable-pci --enable-vmx --enable-logging --enable-fpu --enable-sb16=dummy --enable-cdrom --disable-plugins --disable-docbook --enable-debugger --enable-disasm --with-x11
|
|
$ make all
|
|
$ make install
|
|
|
|
Finally, copy the bochs bioses to a public place
|
|
|
|
$ cp -r ../bochs-2.5.1/bios /usr/share/bochs
|
|
|
|
And that's it.
