3. Consider whether you are going to run this in a chroot, in QEMU, or on bare
metal. (All of this *can* be automated, but not in a trustable way. See
further below.)
a. **chroot:** Create a directory where the chroot will reside, run
``./download-distfiles.sh``, and copy:
* The entire contents of ``seed/stage0-posix`` into that directory.
* All other files in ``seed`` into that directory.
* ``steps/`` and ``distfiles/`` into that directory.
* At least all files listed in ``steps/pre-network-sources`` must be
copied in. All other files will be obtained from the network.
* Run ``/bootstrap-seeds/POSIX/x86/kaem-optional-seed`` in the chroot.
(Eg, ``chroot rootfs /bootstrap-seeds/POSIX/x86/kaem-optional-seed``).
b. **QEMU:** Create two blank disk images.
* Generate ``builder-hex0-x86-stage1.img`` from hex0 source:
``sed 's/[;#].*$//g' builder-hex0/builder-hex0-x86-stage1-hex0 | xxd -r -p``
* On the first image, write ``builder-hex0-x86-stage1.img`` to it, followed
by ``kernel-bootstrap/builder-hex0-x86-stage2.hex0``, followed by zeros
