v0.9.0
This release includes the utility program pure64.
The utility program can create disks and format them with GPT and several different boot sectors and sections of code. It also removes the need to build kernels in Linux systems. Since the dd command is no longer needed for disk images, the only thing needed to create a kernel is an assembler and pure64.
The utility program uses a configuration file, which has been documented. The configuration file is used to specify features and layout of the disk.
When downloading and using the releases, you should either:
a. Extract the files into /opt/return-infinity
Or
b. Set the environment variable PURE64_RESOURCE_PATH to the location of share/pure64/resources in the release directory.
