This source provides a complete port of the C Bare Bones tutorial from http://wiki.osdev.org. I copied and modified the linker script from the D port as the original didn't work for me and also did the same with the startup code from the original C port.
The full documentation and build instructions for this project can be found here.
Note I am currently in the process of updating this repository.
$ git clone https://github.com/Lucretia/bare_bones.git
$ cd bare_bones/build/gnatTo test using make QEMU, you will need GRUB 2 installed for the grub2-mkrescue (GRUB 2 should be installed if you're on a modern distribution) command. This command also requires xorriso - which you will have to install separately.
$ sudo apt-get install qemu xorrisoI have sudo installed on my machine:
$ sudo emerge -av libisoburnI also used my Free Ada build scripts to build useable bare metal cross compilers.
$ mkdir -p others/{build,source}
$ cd others/source
$ git clone git://git.savannah.gnu.org/grub.git
$ cd grub
$ ./autogen.sh
$ mkdir ../../build/grub && cd ../../build/grub
$ ../../source/grub/configure --prefix=`pwd`/../../../gen/pc/grub --target=i586-elf
$ make -j4
$ make installThe qemu target will also make the kernel image and boot.iso.
$ make rts
$ make qemuFrom the build/gnat directory, in one shell, type the following:
$ make qemudthen in another shell, type:
$ ./gdb-qemu.shBoot the kernel within QEMU and GDB will break into the kernel at the main program. e.g.:
$ ./gdb-qemu.sh

I intend to get this very basic kernel building on a number of boards that I have lying around:
- Raspberry Pi (original version)
- Pandaboard
- Arduino Uno
- ChipKit Uno32
- STM32F4-Discovery
- MSP430 Launchpad
This will show that Ada 2012 can be built and booted directly on top of any type type of board from small limited devices and upwards.
- Port to Ada 2012.
- Secondary stack so that indefinite types can be returned easily.
- Move runtime building to Free Ada.
