xorriso
make
tar

Dependencies for compiling toolchain

wget/curl

If it is your first time building, you need to compile the toolchain first. For that, you just need to run build-toolchain.sh, which will download binutils, gcc, grub if youre on macOS, and then compile them to $HOME/opt/cross-i686 by default which can be changed from the prompt.

After you compiled the toolchain and added $PREFIX/bin to your PATH as instructed by the script, you can run qemu.sh to compile and open the OS on QEMU or iso.sh to just generate the ISO.
