-# Resource: RISCV Full System Test
+## Resource: RISCV Full System
-This resource refers to a simple setup for a riscv based full system simulation of Linux kernel.
+The RISCV Full System resource includes a RISCV boot loader (`berkeley bootloader (bbl)`) to boot the Linux 5.10 kernel on a RISCV system, and an image which includes the BusyBox software suite.
+The resource also contains simple gem5 run/config scripts to run Linux full system simulations in which a user may telnet into.
-Main components include:
-- a disk image
-- a riscv boot loader with linux kernel as payload and a device tree compiled in
-- gem5 run/config scripts
+Further information on building a riscv disk image, a riscv boot loader, and how to use gem5 scripts to run riscv Linux full system simulations, is available in the [README](src/riscv-fs/README.md) file.
