PLEASE NOTE: This OS can only be built and run on a Linux computer.

Building-
1. Insert a USB flash media drive into your computer

3. Then run the command 'sudo ./build.sh' and follow the prompt to compile the operating system on to your USB flash media.
4. Then, if you want to add some add-ons move on to step #5, but if you do not, eject your flash media
5. To download and install additional add-ons, go to the StarlungOS web page at http://starlightgraphics.co.nf/StarlungOS. When you have done this, extract the files and then drag them onto the USB flash media.
