Hi,
I have finished the first version of my OS
Named Pocket OS, it is similar to DOS (single task, but allow smp)
If somebody is interrested to test it, it can be dowload at

I wanted to add it in OS project list but don't know how to do this.
Cheers,
Pierre

Nice OS
I tried it on my laptop, it works fine.
May you provide an English version of the keyboard map?
It is very hard to guess the position of the keys

Thank you Karlosoft for testing
I will add keyboard maps asap.
English keyboard is default if no maps loaded.
You can comment "keyb keymap/keyb_fr.map" in autoexec.sh (I forgot to do it in the default version)

It's a very interesting operating system you have. Very simple operating systems are always the best...
Keep up the good work!
