Hello,

I'm looking for a light but still very complete kernel example with source code (memory managmenent, process and thread...etc). It could be UNIX based, like some kind of light Linux.

Do you know a good one ?

MMURTL, XINU, and MircoC are good examples. I have books on all of those and they really give unique perspectives on various ways of impelementing core units of an OS (for me, the biggest aspect was Networking).

You could search back through this board for the MIT series on OS development. One of the "soucecode examples" included in the downloads is a full copy of a simple UNIX -- about half a meg of source, IIRC.
