Nanite
Very small OS that can run on X86 Hardware. Designed to run from just one 1.44MB floppy disk, ATA support coming soon! (TM)
Good luck figuring out the spagetti code i write... (sorry not sorry ;D)
Designed for older computers such as a Pentium (i586) Class Machine. I would recomend atleast a Pentium 2 Class or higher system however.
Features
A funtioning Bootloader and half working kernel. Also some tools for the FAT filesystem (host system). Kernel is currently under heavy development.
How To Build
You Basically Run ./build.sh to build it
If you wanted to write it to a floppy disk you can use write.sh tho be careful as the value for what drive it uses is hard coded as /dev/sdb
How is Testing Done
Testing is mostly done with QEMU These days, but I do sometimes pull out my Dell Latitude D610 to test on (for anyone wondering its completely maxed out. [2GB of ram Pentium M @ 2.23GHz])
Thanks!
