-# The rust port of OOStuBS [WIP]
-
-This is a toy bare metal operation system implemented in Rust. Apologies for my
-shitty code, I'm a rust beginner.
-
-The project is based on the OOStuBS, an OS exercise project used in some German
-Universities. This one in perticular, is based on the TU Dresden version
-(Operating System Construction), led by my Professor Dr. Horst Schirmeier.

-
-**Status**
-[X] - Basic code structure
-[X] - Build minimal iso image
-[X] - bootable using grub
-[X] - Setting up CGA display, print something (hello world)
-[X] - Provide "printf" support
-[ ] - Keyboard controller and input handler
-[ ] - Interrupt handler
-[ ] - Timer Interrupt
-[ ] - Threading
-[ ] - Scheduler
-[ ] - Synchronization Primitives
-
-**Dependencies**
-- cargo / rustc (nightly)
-- xbuild for crossbuild
-- basics: nasm, make, glibc, ld etc.
-- xorriso and grub (to create bootable image)
-- qemu-system-x86_64 (optionly for simulation)
-
-**Before building**
-- You may need to add the rust sources component by `rustup component add rust-src`
-
-**How to build**
-- simply run `make`, you will get `bootdisk.iso`, which you can use to boot a
- bare metal
-- use `make qemu` to load and test the iso image with qemu
-
-# Remarks
-**Why not projects like [blog_os](https://os.phil-opp.com/)?**
-firstly, because it's my own practice. "What I can't create, I don't understand".
-Secondly, the newest revision of *blog_os* can only be booted with BIOS, not
-UEFI. And the complexity (e.g. the sartup.s) is hidden behind the `bootimage`,
-I feel necessary to go through the painful part.
-
-**Your code sucks**
-Yes. I'm a rust beginner.
