borfigos is yet another operating system for the x86 architecture.
It is written for the sole purpose of studying operating system theory,
and the x86 architecture.

Requirements:
- An x86 PC, preferably a virtual one
- any standard multiboot boot loader
- an x86 tool-chain

WARNING:
--------

This operating system is not yet safe for running on real hardware!
Be warned!
Use any virtualization solution to run this operating system.

Currently, there is only a kernel and no drivers at all.

I recommend using kvm (http://www.linux-kvm.org/) with the -kernel option
to boot borfigos

# kvm -kernel borfigos.elf

GNU GRUB (http://www.gnu.org/software/grub/) can also be used, but I have
not tested.

To compile it, just invoke make from the top directory.
