r0nix v0.0

Post by r0nk »

r0nix is a unix-like that I've been developing for about two months now. Its just now starting to take the shape of an OS. It has many great features, such as:
  • * full of surprises (as in, its so unreliable I'm scared to run it on a VM )
    * a "filesystem"
    * networking...ish.
    * what could be considered paging if you had never seen a working implementation of paging before.
    * as soon as the scheduler stops crashing, multi-tasking.
And much more, all of which clearly make r0nix the best operating system of all time.

On a more serious note, I've learned a ton writing r0nix and I don't at all regret the all-nighters I've put into it. I now know a considerable amount more then when I've started, and I can now read through systems code without being overwhelmed. I found that, for the most part, I've gone over the learning curve of operating system development (not to say that I've come close to mastering it).

I've recently begun to explore a few other projects, so I'll no longer be working on r0nix all day every day. I'll still try to develop it, however, as I still want it to become a full unix clone. Any contributions are definitely welcome, along with any feedback/criticism.

Hey
Looks cool, do you have an image for us to test or do we have to build it ourself?

After a quick look at your source, and considering that you didn't even try it on real hardware: Probably not, you've only got your feet wet. :)

Anyway, it looks like a nice start, so even if you still have a learning curve ahead of you, you seem to be on a good way.
