The technology behind this project

• The most important part of the Abanu project is the Mosa-Compiler, which is written in pure C#. The Mosa-Compiler converts an already compiled Assembly (build via msbuild or xbuild, default compiler from .NET/Mono) into native Code.
• build some required Assembler-Code and append it to the native binary. The Assembler code is mostly used for early initialization.
• Building the Operating System Disk Image, with Grub2 as Bootloader
