Alright I'll play it is Dexos or Amiga os from the links LOL, do I get a prize or better a big fat raspberry LOL



Go to the top of the class, yes it was DexOS.

<r>I do not want to name my os as that would be seen as spamming, but it is one of these in these links<br/> <br/> <URL url="http://www.techradar.com/news/.....ems-934484">http://www.techradar.com/news/.....ems-934484</URL><br/> <br/> <URL url="http://royal.pingdom.com/2008/.....he-future/">http://r...

<t>To all those who are thinking about writing an OS for the R-PI, anything bigger than an Hello World is a very big undertaking for one person, I have spent the last ten years coding a full assembly OS for both x86 and ARM, if I knew what a big job it was going to be I would not of started, if you ...

<t>Prices of the ARM11 chip may seem on the out side dearer than what you are selling the R-PI for but if you look at the overall package then they are at best the same,  This is from an OSDev's point of view, and when you weigh this with the lack of documentation on parts of the hardware it is not ...

<t>I think that you are all missing the point , RPI is not a PIC  or a AVR as that is what you are trying to turn the RPI into.<br/> <br/> To make an OS for the RPI  you will need a GUI of some sort and keyboard input (which means using usb as i stated ) the only other option would be to go headless...

<t>@CarlGundel,  I fully understand what you are talking about and i fully agree with you,<br/> <br/> it is sometimes hard for people brought up on more modern languages to fully understand just how much fun a basic type environment can be for teaching someone to program .<br/> <br/> There is a need...

<t>Making a bare-bones ASM os is not that hard,  but in the raspberry pi case it is.<br/> <br/> Not only does the gpu binary blob make it harder than normal but also you need some sort of debugging info and means of input, in the raspberry pi's case the need for a usb stack give's you the problem of...

<t>This seems like a great idea , I have been learning ASM for a number of years,<br/> <br/> When i started learning ASM i found it very hard to get to grips with it under windows/linux, it was not until i switched to DOS that  i started making any progress. I should think that the situation would b...
