Annotation of xinu/sys/README, revision 1.1.1.1

1.1       root        1:        This file is {Xinu-directory}/src/sys/sys/README
                      2: 
                      3: This directory contains the source programs for Xinu itself.  To rebuild
                      4: Xinu, edit file "Configuration" to reflect the hardware on your VAX,
                      5: and run make.  Typically, "make d" is used to make new Xinu object files,
                      6: link them into a library (libx.a), compile source program "test.c",
                      7: download the result, and invoke odt to see the output.  When you are
                      8: satisfied that it works, run "make everything" to produce miscellaneous
                      9: files like ",lint" and ",sizes" (a sample output from "make everything"
                     10: has been left in file make.out so you can see what to expect).
                     11: 
                     12: Finally, to make the new version public, run "make install" which actually
                     13: copies "xinu.o" and "libx.a" into {Xinu-directory}/lib where they can be
                     14: accessed by /bin/cc or /bin/ld.
                     15: 
                     16:  Note1:        The make file has been carefully constructed so it references
                     17:        xinu.o and libx.a in THIS directory when it compiles and links
                     18:        the test program.
