## Build errors
|
||||
|
||||
If you see a qemu error like this:
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
qemu-system-x86_64: -drive if=pflash,format=raw,readonly=on,file=/home/jacob/Desktop/Code/FoundryOS/build/OVMF_CODE.fd: Could not open '/home/jacob/Desktop/Code/FoundryOS/build/OVMF_CODE.fd': No such file or directory
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Simply delete the ./build directory and try to rebuild the program. Using the runner script or `cargo run` will download the required files for you, this is because the script only checks for the presence of one file and not the VARS file.
|
||||
|
||||
Alternatively, you may disable using a UEFI firmware with qemu like so:
|
||||
```sh
|
||||
USE_LEGACY_BIOS=1 cargo run
|
||||
```
