like literally, i was asking for instructions. neither this post nor the github repo offered any instructions of what one is supposed to do with this, aka, how to build it, how to run it, or what to learn.

Ahh, ok. I wasn't trying to be snarky, just pointing out that it's quite small and easy to fit in your head.

It seems disconnected because it's the repo for the port to RISC-V. The instructions you're looking for are here for the original x86 port: https://www.cs.virginia.edu/~cr4bd/4414/F2019/xv6intro.html

Thank you, that is precisely what I was looking for.
