I'd like to give it a spin but not sure I want to build this from source. Would be nice to include a downloadable boot image (let me know if there is one I couldn't find).
> Whilst it is possible to run Serenity on physical x86-compatible hardware, it is not yet ready to be used by non-technical users who aren't prepared to report bugs or assist with its development. For this reason, there are currently no pre-built install images so a bare-metal installation requires that you build an installation image from source.
> There are no ISO images. This project does not cater to non-technical users.
And I also found the reason for it being 32 bit, which feels rather quaint..

Sure, I'm not a non-technical user but I feel like setting up a build environment and building from scratch is more than the time investment I'm willing to make to evaluate this project.
Just want a disk image to plop in Qemu or VirtualBox or Hyper-V to see what this feels like before I delve in the code.
