I tried two different floppies and Jicama OS boots ok until I get this:

root at 768devread at 768 failed
jump to task
Welcome to Jicama OS 0.15...

And then it complains about not being able to find the autosomething.sh script.

Otherwise, it boots fine until then. That is all I have to report. I like your screenshots.

Thank you.
please use vpc, and do not use harddisk image. the init script is named "autorun.sh", may in dir /bin, or /system and root(/).
now, this file content is like underside:
#!/bin/sh
#
#???init script

#echo $SHELL
#echo $PATH
cls
echo Welcome to $OS 0.15
echo "
you can add your script to file /system/autorun.sh, and more information at http://jicama.cosoft.org.cn.
"
#exec sh
gtest
exit
just run /bin/gtest program.
if entry vindows , press 'q' you can see a form.

Okay. I tried VMWare but it faulted and printed exceptions. Then I tried the two floppy disks on a direct boot. That's when I had the dev_read error. I will try VPC later tonight when I install it.

hi! It boots up well in VPC. I get to the desktop.

When I press 'q', the form appears but then I can't move the mouse anymore.

Just a question to the developer of this operating system: how much ground-work is necessary for an operating system to be able to support the FreeType2 library?
