  1. Aside from "rebuilding under itself" which is on the roadmap, OS/1337 is close to #mkroot.

    Certainly not a drop-in replacement, but that's not the primary goal of it either.
    It would be nice, but it's not a strict necessity as of now...

    It's also not as cringe as using a botched Debian 8.2 shoved though OpenADK and left to marinade or rather rot for almost a decade on devices being deployed to customers...

    As of now, just running build.sh does build a working 1440kB floppy image that boots.

    Tho there are still some issues I'm confident this will get some releaseable alpha version this year if not the first half of it...

    Contributions to #OS1337 are welcome as well as feedback: Tho be mindful this is pre-alpha software so it may have a lot of rough and sharp edges that can hurt.

    If one can test on physical hardware with ISA and/or PC/104 bus that would really help.
    Ideally use something like a Gotek #SFR1M44 test with if your System's #BIOS doesn't support USB-#Floppy emulation via an image file like some #Vortex86-based SBCs.

    (Doesn't require #Flash Floppy tho it's recommended!

    As of now, OS/1337 does boot, but has a lot of issues...

    But we're confident to get them addressed.
