501: Update to the 2018 edition of Rust r=phil-opp a=phil-opp This updates the blog to use the upcoming [2018 edition](https://rust-lang-nursery.github.io/edition-guide/rust-2018/index.html) of Rust, which is currently in beta and already the default on nightly. It changes a few local import paths (now with a `crate::` prefix) and removes all `extern crate` definitions and `macro_use` attributes. This PR changes a lot of code across all posts, so there might be some things in the posts that I forgot to update. Please let me know if you see anything! [Preview of the changes](https://rust-2018--blog-os.netlify.com/) Fixes #499 Fixes #500 Co-authored-by: Philipp Oppermann <dev@phil-opp.com>
Blog OS
This repository contains the source code for the Writing an OS in Rust series at os.phil-opp.com.
Building
You need a nightly Rust compiler and the cargo-xbuild and bootimage tools. You can install the tools by executing the following command:
cargo install cargo-xbuild bootimage
Afterwards you can invoke bootimage build to produce a bootable disk image. Please file an issue if you run into any problems.
To run the image in QEMU, you can execute bootimage run. Note that you need to have QEMU installed.
