Image start needs a windows system #413

Closed DrDub closed 10 months ago

DrDub commented 10 months ago

I followed the instructions in a screen session and ended up with qemu running headless while I thought it was still compiling.

Had to check the command line options to understand it was expecting SDL. You might want to add to the README that the build system is expected to run in an interactive system.

wdym ?

SDL is used for running the GUI apps on the host OS.

Forget about the SDL comment. The main point is that the build script ends launching QEMU that needs a windows system, otherwise the console doesn't say much but the OS is running.

That's because it's still under development :)

Come back in the future and you'll see one

@DrDub thanks for the feedback, I added a note to the readme ;)
