testing tccboot with qemu/kvm
TCCBOOT, a hack where TCC loads and boots a Linux kernel from source in about 10 seconds. That is to say, it is a "boot loader" which reads Linux kernel source code from disk, writes executable instructions to memory, and begins running it.

wget http://bellard.org/tcc/tccboot.iso

for realy fast booting
kvm -cdrom tccboot.iso
for slow booting and to see what parts of the kernel are compiled
qemu -cdrom tccboot.iso
