A: shouldn't this be in announcements/project info?

B: do you believe that your OS will really be competing with mainstream OS's?

C: I wanted to test out your OS, but I get an error 16: inconsistent filesystem error. just FYI.

Yeah, your floppy has issues.
And.......I thought that I could implement emulation of other OS's when was noobed out, now I realize that thats not realistic.
Please, realize that if you set your hopes low, you set your self up for failure. But if you set your dreams high, you have something to work for. And if you set the knowledge of your goals high....then you can do anything you want. Nothings impossible. You just have to set your mind to it.
It may not be realistic, but it is possible. I didn't feel like doing it though.

Just.....if you truly believe in it......then go for it, nobody can stop you.

I get the same thing all the time, I just have to do a couple things that I couldn't describe to make it work.

Your SVN repo seems to be empty...

I'm not using it at the moment.
I just let people download the source package. I don't know how to use svn.

Google is your friend. Search for 'SVN book'.

Lol why did you announce it if it was in a non-working state?

You can still compile the kernel, but you have to set it up to load with grub yourself. In that sense it is a working kernel. Though, today I found I had a problem with setting up the GDT. Triple fault every time I call gdt_install();

gdt is working now

Believe us, using software version control tool(like svn, git, etc) make your coding skill improving.

"believe us", what are you the queen of england?

And I don't think using SVN or anything makes you a better programmer - only better at well, just SVN.

I was wondering about that believe us part.

binutils is many. ld, as, etc.

Using SVN doesn't make you a better coder, it's just a nice skill to have--an code backup system is always a good thing to have. I format my hard drives a lot, so having the code somewhere safe (ie. one of my server boxes that runs SVN) is great. Plus it's great for teams.

I personnaly think using svn does not improve your programming skills,
but it will surely improve the way you manage and use code,specially when in front of large projects and when working as a team.
