OS/C Extended File System
|
OS/C is a small, Unix-like operating system, designed to take advantage
of system resources to provide network services and utilities while not clogging up
a system. It is also extremely process-oriented, with most of the system being built around the
scheduler. The scheduler itself is only a collection of files which are easily modified.
So far, it is only for the Intel Pentium class machines. One idea to make it portable
is too put several versions of the same code, but for different architectures, into an "arch" folder.
Currently, we do not have an architectures other than the PC for testing. If you want a version for
whatever machine you run, you can either download and modify the code for your processor, donate time
for testing/writing OS/C on this architecture, or donate a computer :). We would prefer if people used
the first option, and then emailed the modified parts to projectosc@yahoo.com.
Currently, OS/C is in the coding/organizing/pre-alpha stage. If you wish to contribute to the
project, please contact us.
Source code can be found here.
Please note that this code is specific to the i386 and above, and also that most of it is in C. I compile (what will compile)
it with GCC. The site for GCC can be found here. This is
a very good compiler, but it runs from a command prompt. For those of you not used to the command prompt, I believe that an
IDE can be found with the DOS port, but I'm not sure. One more thing. The message board does not work. If you
wish to have questions answered, or wish to post comments, email me.
