I stopped working on Asmadian (my old, crap OS), and now I'm making System Photon (as I mentioned above), and i'm sort-of close to finishing the kernel, look at this amazing screenshot:

Comment please!

gods thats over whelmingly pink and bright!

gods that's only the bootup screen, in the finished OS you'll see this for less than a second!!!

P.S. you magenta, not pink

Hi Andy, and welcome to the OSDev forums.

Your OS is very good and I know it since a while (The first version I tested is 0.2_PRE ).
Anyway, I'm very impatient to test the next version 0.7. Hope it will be available in a few
days ...

Indeed, I recall your project as well.

Welcome to the forums Andy.

It's good to see you here Andy!

Ha, you too Asper!

Thanks everyone!

An image of my AMD64 loader, that sucessfully loads my kernel binary. Not much, but quite tricky to write.

Edit: The kernel gets loaded successfully, sets up its memory management (featuring dlmalloc) and parses some ACPI tables...

My new screenshot

Here's mine so far, this is SubraX. Subra has been developed in my spare time for the last couple of years now and then and am incorporating a minimal window manager, hence SubraX. This is the boot screen. As you can tell it's nowhere near completion, but love it all the same.

As you can see it does have an imaging system (SXI version 2.0), ramdisk support (given a SXR 1.0 - SubraX formatted ramdisk) and animation support is under way along with threading over the next couple of weeks. It only runs in Virtualbox but it is very fast and not everything is in yet and buggy!

I could go on and on and tell you what it doesn't have yet so it might be better to show you what it does (bugs and all)

GDT / IDT
Timer
PAE (Physical Address Extensions)
VESA via vbox only (via Oslib vm86 task) ->Going to port just relevant code and ditch because not updated sadly
SubraX Image format support (SXI Version 1.0) ->Ditching in favour of (SXI Version 2.0)
Keyb UK code present but removed for updates
Ext2fs (not yet working)
FAT32 (subject to legal queries possibly, also not yet working)
LBA over PIO ATA disk (works but some things aren't correct)
Partition (MSDOS) supported but not enabled and working
SXR support (Version 1.0) SubraX Ramdisk, loads everything even when hardware not 100% supported, so a workable environment could be used over NetBoot, wwwBoot, USBKey, CDROM, ISO and HD and whatever as long as a boot medium is present such as multiboot compliant grub et al. Not yet 100% to specification.
Boot Font support which is a little, er, well (swear words aren't allowed are they?), working but my artistic skills aren't good
and other stuff

Very early yet so not usable state!!

Well, it's been ages since I've posted here, so I thought I might show of my ifconfig application

I have basic networking implemented (UDP works, but TCP is a little iffy)

Here are a few screenshots to show you MSB-OS and the indexed-machine-code programming environment available in it. The first shot shows the control room (equivalent to the desktop) with a menu in the top left corner listing two applicatications available on the disk for loading. The second shows Machine Editor 2, though you can't see the bottom four lines as that part of the screen's just been been taken over by the monitor program which can be entered at any time by using a special key combination - the keyboard interrupt routine switches whatever code was about to run through the processor to indirect-run mode so that any freeze, whether in the OS or any app, can be debugged easily. The third shot shows a page of the manual with embedded machine code in it being run through the same monitor program - the machine code in yellow has just been run in single-steps to send all the values 0 to 255 to the top of the screen (each value twice).

Hi there,

Let me introduce Kolibri-A, an embeddable OS for AMD RS780 platforms (a branch of KolibriOS)

http://wiki.kolibrios.org/wiki/EmbeddedKOS/

Yeah, you were lucky to find the only thing not related to KolibriOS at all (on the blue filemanager's panel).

The upper screen shows how one can inspect various NB and PCIe registers staying in convenient GUI environment -- very useful tool for hardware engineers and driver developers.

The second snapshot demonstrates another powerful feature: the Ring3-remappable MMIO access.
