The Diosix hypervisor is linked at build time with an operating system kernel to form a single executable that is copied into RAM from storage by a bootloader. After the hypervisor has brought up the hardware, this operating system kernel is parsed and loaded into a virtualized environment called the boot capsule. The boot capsule is expected to locate more capsules containing software in storage, and load them into memory to run. It can do this automatically and/or provide a user interface allowing capsules and their applications and services to be selected, loaded, and run as required. As such, the boot capsule kernel should include a file system with programs to run to facilitate this. This milestone is reached when Diosix can successfully start the boot capsule to the point that it can start init and run multitasking user-level code.
