Comment by Thrir94994i 2 years ago 357 bytes for bootstrap compiler binary is VERY impressive! 4 comments Thrir94994i Reply msm_ 2 years ago If I remember correctly, this tiny binary is used to (reproducibly) bootstrap the next binary, which bootstraps the next binary, until eventually GCC can be compiled (and compile other software). Smaug123 2 years ago The bootstrap chain is https://github.com/oriansj/stage0-posix-x86/blob/e86bf7d304b... rssoconnor 2 years ago To be fair, it is 357 bytes ... plus a POSIX operating system.Still, that POSIX operating system bit is also being worked on. 6581 2 years ago Isn't that what builder-hex0 does?https://github.com/ironmeld/builder-hex0
