My new os project (Project-OS NewKernel)

[Peterbjornx]

First of all, let me explain the name:
I had been working on another OS project before this which i named Project-OS. When I started working on this one I originally planned to reuse everything but the kernel, that didn't work out so I started from scratch but kept the name.

It is mostly intended as a learning project, I am also trying to keep it as portable as is possible as I might try to port it to my BeagleBone Black one day but for now it is x86 only

Credits:
Some snippets are from the wiki (tiny assembler bits)
New console driver: libvterm authors
tty subsystem : me but using toaruos as a reference

Prebuilt images
Larger iso with gui and gcc (try csession)
To run these images, use Qemu:

Code: Select all

qemu -cdrom pos.iso -vga std -serial stdio -m 1024

GitHub repo:
Contains ported kernel, newlib, gcc, nyancat, busybox + all other related code.

Cool stuff, man! Are there any prebuilt images I can try?

Alright, here's some odd list of bugs I noticed:

• The screen doesn't seem to be fully cleared when the login program runs.
• Pressing home seems to crash bash.
• Running exit in sh causes a segmentation fault.
• The shell appears to have locked up when I ^C nyan.
• The env program appears to only list a single environment variable.
• ls doesn't seem to report . and .. entries.

Anyways, basics appear to be working.
