Bare metal code on the Raspberry Pi

I’ve had my Raspberry Pi for a while now, and it makes a great little Linux system.  I’ve even been exercising the graphics capabilities with our game Iridium Rising

But one thing I’ve been meaning to do is go straight to the bare metal – just run some code on the CPU with no OS to get in the way.  Luckily I’m not alone and there’s a decent forum thread on how to get started.

There was still a bit of work to pull everything together – so I’ve whacked up a git repo with a readme on how to get everything set up.

The end result is the OK light on your Pi blink, but everything is set up ready to do something a bit more interesting.
