# Building Rust embedded firmware on BSD
Using the Rust stable compiler from the BSD ports is mostly a matter of removing the arbitrary limitations that have been built into the Rust toolchain.
Get rid of the "nightly toolchain" check in cargo-xbuild:
```
diff --git a/src/lib.rs b/src/lib.rs

let sysroot = rustc::sysroot(verbose)?;
- let src = match meta.channel {

- };
+ Rust source directory",

let cmode = if let Some(triple) = args.target() {
if triple == meta.host {
```
Run ``cargo install --path .`` to install the modified cargo-xbuild
Get a copy of the Rust sources that corresponds to the installed compiler binary, and set up the environment accordingly:
```
> rustc --version
rustc 1.72.1 (d5c2e9c34 2023-09-13) (built from a source tarball)
> git clone --depth=1 --recurse-submodules --shallow-submodules https://github.com/rust-lang/rust --branch 1.72.1
> export XARGO_RUST_SRC=`pwd`/rust/library
```
Disable other arbitrary checks in the Rust compiler:
```
> export RUSTC_BOOTSTRAP=1
```
And you can now simply run ``cargo xbuild`` to build the firmware.
