Running system on riscv64-generic-qemu#

This version is designated for RISC-V 64 processors based virtual machine implemented by qemu-system-riscv64. To launch this version two files should be provided - phoenix.disk file integrated with SBI firmware with embedded PLO, kernel, UART16550 interface and virtio-blk drivers, dummyfs filesystem and the psh shell and rootfs.disk image with the ext2 filesystem.

The files are created as the final artifact of the phoenix-rtos-project building and are located in the _boot directory. See how to build the Phoenix-RTOS system image.
