SOS v 0.1 announcement (A MikeOS based OS)

Post by opensesame11 »

Hello. Today, I would like to announce the StrikeOS 0.1 alpha 1 release date. Though not predetermined, the release will indefinitely be before Christmas. A list of features to be included:
* APM support (shutdown only)
* ACPI support (shutdown only)
* Password login (no username of password file. it's hard coded in)
* Error code support file

Anyone who would like to try it out email me @ [email protected] and hop on my mailing list.

Thankyou all

Cool, good luck! Although you might want to see if you can join another project first -- there are at least 15 MikeOS-based projects out there, although many have been abandoned now:
