willing to join someone's OS

nekros · Post by **nekros** » Sun Mar 09, 2008 4:09 pm

If anyone wants me to join there operating system project I am willing to do so. If you want to join mine(which has mostly nothing done except for port io, kprint).

I want to join an Operating system that is developed to the point where it has a console, task loading( at least ).

I can't really say how well I am at programming, but I have a few years experience with C and asm.

I'd like that when my kernel becomes more advanced......
But right now it's just a little project I have.

Mine is used in present be me.
Most people here is searching somebody to make a team to develop their own projects, you are the first i see that offers to work in another project.
Why you don't take a look at some Oses to find the one you like more?
You can start by my web page

My OS will soon be able to be self-hosting. Just a few more days worth of coding to get my FS drivers working properly and a lot of testing to go

.

Exclaim kind of intrests me

I'd like to help create a driver interface.

Edit: Exclaim is very much like Linux, I want to work on a non-unix-like OS.

if you want to work on a driver interface, why not do so, then post the results.

if its good enough you may get many OS's implementing it. i don't have a driver interface yet, so it would be of use to me

I'll do that.

If you get a decent enough driver spec up, we at project Pedigree will implement it.

If it's good enough.

And if it can be marshalled into a C++ object easily.

I'll be using my OS as a test for the interface.

just out of interest, how do people manage their drivers at the moment?

there must be a fair few people with microkernels here

Not anymore, I'm redesigning it

But I'll still have a POSIX interface available

I take it because you want GCC and other unix programs?
