# Running Collapse OS on an emulator
|
|
|
|
The quickest way to give Collapse OS a whirl is to use `tools/emul` which is
|
|
built around [libz80][libz80]. Everything is set up, you just have to run
|
|
`make`, then `shell/shell`.
|
|
|
|
To emulate something at a lower level, I recommend using Alan Cox's [RC2014
|
|
emulator][rc2014-emul]. It runs Collapse OS fine but you have to write the
|
|
glue code yourself. One caveat, also, is that it requires a ROM image bigger
|
|
than 8K, so you have to pad the binary.
|
|
|
|
A working Makefile for a project with a glue code being called `main.asm` could
|
|
look like:
|
|
|
|
TARGET = os.bin
|
|
ZASM = ~/collapseos/tools/emul/zasm/zasm
|
|
ROM = os.rom
|
|
|
|
.PHONY: all
|
|
all: $(ROM)
|
|
$(TARGET): main.asm
|
|
$(ZASM) < $< > $@
|
|
|
|
$(ROM): $(TARGET)
|
|
cp $< $@
|
|
dd if=/dev/null of=$@ bs=1 count=1 seek=8192
|
|
|
|
.PHONY: run
|
|
run: $(ROM)
|
|
~/RC2014/rc2014 -r $(ROM)
|
|
|
|
`CTRL+\` stops the emulation.
