To run the main baremetal Raspberry Pi kernel,
$ git clone git:https://github.com/tonyg/pi-nothing.git
$ make link all
$ cp baremetal/raspberrypi.img /PATH/TO/YOUR/RASPBERRY/PI/SDCARD/kernel.img
Boot the Raspberry Pi.
There is also a simpler kernel for
the QEMU-emulated
versatilepb
machine that can be run in emulation from the host:
$ cd baremetal
$ make versatilepb.img
$ ./run-kernel
A graphical variant also exists.
When running a versatilepb
kernel in emulation, you're interacting
with the kernel via the emulated board's serial UART. Type characters
at it, and it will echo them. When you get bored of this, press C-a x
to quit qemu
.
