ERROR REPORTS
If you spot errors or have suggestions for improvement, please send email to
Frans Kaashoek and Robert Morris (kaashoek,rtm@csail.mit.edu). If you have
suggestions for improvements, please keep in mind that the main purpose of xv6
is as a teaching operating system for MIT's 6.828. For example, we are in
particular interested in simplifications and clarifications, instead of
suggestions for new systems calls, more portability, etc.
Please send errors and suggestions to Frans Kaashoek and Robert Morris

BUILDING AND RUNNING XV6
To build xv6 on an x86 ELF machine (like Linux or FreeBSD), run "make".
On non-x86 or non-ELF machines (like OS X, even on x86), you will
need to install a cross-compiler gcc suite capable of producing x86 ELF
binaries. See http://pdos.csail.mit.edu/6.828/2016/tools.html.
Then run "make TOOLPREFIX=i386-jos-elf-".
To run xv6, install the QEMU PC simulators. To run in QEMU, run "make qemu".
To create a typeset version of the code, run "make xv6.pdf". This
requires the "mpage" utility. See http://www.mesa.nl/pub/mpage/.
