Limine Bare Bones: Difference between revisions

The Limine Boot Protocol is the flagshipnative boot protocol provided by the [[Limine]] bootloader. Like the [['''stivale]]''' protocols it supersedes, it is a designed to overcome shortcomings of common boot protocols used by hobbyist OS developers, such as [[Multiboot]], and [[stivale]] itself.

The Limine boot protocol is firmware and architecture agnostic. The Limine bootloader supports x86-64, IA32, and aarch64.

This article will demonstrate how to write a small 64x86-bit64 higher half Limine-compliant kernel in [[C]], and boot it using the [[Limine]] bootloader.

It is also very recommended to check out [https://github.com/limine-bootloader/limine-barebones this template project] as it provides example buildable code to go along with this guide.
