Running Sinux

After building the ISO, you can boot Sinux in QEMU.

BIOS mode

make run-bios

UEFI mode

make run-uefi

Headless / serial

Run with output redirected to your terminal (useful over SSH or for logging):

make run-serial

Debugging

Run with the QEMU interrupt log enabled:

make run-debug

:::tip Real hardware Sinux can also boot on real x86_64 hardware. Write the ISO to a USB drive and make sure Secure Boot is OFF in your firmware settings. :::

Once booted, you'll land in the built-in shell with filesystem commands. Explore the architecture docs to understand what's running underneath.
