Hi
This is the first release of my operating system. You can read about it and download images at
http://softwarewizard.dk/mojo.
I am interested in your feedback, so what do you think
P.S. This is my first post here but I have (of course) been reading the site for quite some time - so thanks to everyone who has posted answers and contributed to the Wiki.

Well the screenies look good. However I don't use bochs... well I do on occasion but I haven't bothered to reinstall it since I reformatted. Is it not a live boot or something surely it can fit in a CD iso or a simple .bin.

I have not yet attempted to boot it of a CD or USB stick. I didn't really realize how much easier it would be for others to test it that way - but you make it obviously clear
I have put it on the very top of my priority list.
Thanks for the feedback. Btw. how do you usually test? On real hardware only or other emulators?
Best regards

Historically:
Emulator Only
New Policy:
Emulator Pre-test
I will probably hardware test a floppy sized OS
Unless its really feature heavy I probably wont burn a CD to test an OS

Cool os!
It is even better than mine.
It stated that is everything is in (read-only) mode and not be able to write stuff to the disk. What boot loader are you using. Using FAT bootloader, Grub Bootloader, or your custom?

Hi
Yes everything is read-only since I have not implemented writing in the hard disk driver or file systems yet.
I'm using GRUB to load the kernel and the boot modules.
Best regards
