Compilation

In order to assemble the virtual machine image you will need to simply compile Stardust by running make in the terminal as follows:

$ cd workspace/stardust/src
$ make

This will produce stardust.gz which is the virtual machine image file.

Sometimes it may be useful to examine the statically linked object files combined to make the virtual machine image for debugging purposes. Stardust's build configuration relies on objdump and readelf to produce the necessary artefacts for examination, which can be generated by running the following command after the creation of the virtual machine image:

$ make dump
