OSDev.org is moving and being updated!!!

Post by Chase »

I've updated the site to have the same look across the entire site. The projects and links sections have some enhancements so they can be sorted and rated by everyone.

Everything is being moved over to where to board has been hosted for a while but it may take some time for the dns changes to filter across the net. You can always edit your OS' host file so that 204.215.248.28 maps to www.osdev.org

Even though lots of the pages/scripts are changing I've setup mappings so all the OSDev Ring links floating around the net should stay working, so no worries.

I've also gone through all the development and projects links and gotten rid of the broken links. Once you guys start seeing the changes(everything works) let me know what you think.

>> How do we edit our OS' host file?

What OS are you running? Every OS has it, it's just stored in a different place.

Under Win2000 you go to C:\WINNT\system32\drivers\etc and edit the "hosts" file. (There's no extension) and add the lines

204.215.248.28 www.osdev.org
204.215.248.28 osdev.org

Under Solaris the "hosts" file is in /etc/inet, under other flavors of *nix it might be under /etc and under old Windows OS' it's under C:\Windows
