Command line
Use the same Node launcher for hosted filesystems and local machine images.
| Command | Use it for | Guide |
|---|---|---|
node brintos.js --url MACHINE_URL | Booting a cloud machine locally, using the website's current filesystem client | Headless Node launch |
node brintos.js --image ./machine.img | Booting a local ext4 image with its kernel-selected official runtime | Local image launch |
node brintos.js --fs ./rootfs | Booting a local development directory | Local development |
Files and images
Use the file browser for individual uploads and downloads, and ext4 import/export for whole filesystems. See Files & images. The native FUSE client is retired.
Machine launchers
Hosted machine launches use the HardwareJS version in Machine spec settings. Local roots and ext4
images infer it from the versioned kernel filename; --hardwarejs-version provides an explicit
override. The website supplies and verifies the approved official runtime. Local image payloads stay
on your computer.
node brintos.js --helpIn the Node machine console, Ctrl-] powers off and exits, Ctrl-C interrupts the guest program, and Ctrl-\ prints diagnostics.
