To create an OS, the core of which only needs to be updated when a new processor comes out, is mostly free, works on everything, is fast, flexible, and frees you up to get REAL work done. ANYTHING ELSE YOU THINK WE SHOULD KNOW? Besides the fact that my favorite MOD is PN-DECON.S3M? Possibly, but this might not be my filespace. min/0.08 2/22/96 /0.10 7/25/96 |

Wanted to see a better OS that provided users with a power of a PC, but the simplicity of use of a console based system. ANYTHING ELSE YOU THINK WE SHOULD KNOW? Currently a graduate student in college ... life is busy ... min (via JavaScript form) / 29/7/96 |

I am primarily interested in building a better multi-tasking DOS. What Desqview or the DOS boxes of Windows etc. SHOULD have been. ANYTHING ELSE YOU THINK WE SHOULD KNOW? min/0.08 2/22/96 |
The OS I picture is very quick with minimal overhead code. A fast, 32-BIT kernel which can break standards (eg. DOS support, 16-bit code support, large kernel services and DOS file layout) I think the first question to consider is how to implement the files. From there the boot code can be written, then the protected mode initialization, and so on. I know nothing about OO programming, let-alone OS design but I would be willing to learn. I think assembler should be used for the kernel to make it as a fast and as small as possible. Besides that, there is the GUI (if any) but that is not of immediate priority.
