One of the outer walls of our house was never pointed, for unknown reasons. And I'm the type of asshole who impulsively decides to spend half an hour at the YouTube academy before taking a shot at it myself.

This is the type of thing that gives the pros a conniption. But I have the flavour of neurodivergence where I enjoy poorly learning new skills, so deal with it. 😁

@DavittoKun Actually, I've not come that long and have been quite #lazy and #halfassing things way too much.

I just took @w84death 's #Floppinux Manual, a current #Linux Kernel, yeeted #BusyBox for @landley 's #toybox and hammered enough keys with my monkey brain to get a console working.

@SweetAIBelle them beautified and streamlined the list of scripts I used to build it and provided ample of feedback and suggestions.

In fact, I think everyone should read that Floppinux manual which is also a nice writeup to get started at the surface of it.

It's an ongoing process and ideally it'll get modest success for those that look for #OpenBSD-alike security but with the ease and simplicity of "how do I get this running on my [weird] box?" since basically every SoC today can boot Linux more or less straightforward to some degree.

I do OFC value and welcome feedback and support on that matter, as I can't even remotely claim to know everything without ridiculing myself with such a baseless statement.

Does it seem redundant to #mkroot?
Yeah, but that's expected since mkroot's goal is to showcase toybox's self-reproduceability and using it's built-in gzip instead of xz is just one of the many concessions this will inevitably demand...

Do I want OS/1337 to be 'self-hosting'?
Yes, but it's not the prime goal and thus currently out of focus for testing...

A lot of things will develop over time...
