• nasm
• qemu-system-i386
• grub-mkrescue
• An i686-elf cross-compiler toolchain (gcc, g++, ld)

1. Clone the repository:

   git clone https://github.com/faishal882/uqaabOS.git
   cd uqaabOS

2. Build the OS:

   make 

   This will create the build/uqaabOS.iso file.

3. Run with QEMU:

   qemu-system-i386 -cdrom build/uqaabOS.iso

4. Run with the virtual harddrive attached

   qemu-system-i386 -cdrom build/uqaabOS.iso -drive file=hdd.img,format=raw -boot d
