We see that `xargo` cross-compiled the `core` library for our new custom target and then continued to compile our `blog_os` crate. Now we are able to build our kernel for a bare metal target. However, our `_start` entry point, which will be called by the boot loader, is still empty. So let's output something to screen from it.
