Could you build this?

No Operating system and firmware-level development (OS kernels, device drivers, low-level platform code) cannot be built purely via vibe coding.

What it would actually take: Building an operating system or specialized OS distribution requires low-level systems programming in C, C++, or Rust, alongside bootloader configuration (e.g., GRUB, U-Boot), kernel architecture, device tree definitions, and hardware abstraction layers. It demands deep systems engineering expertise and dedicated embedded/OS test toolchains.
