pyth0n3 Posted June 26, 2012 Report Share Posted June 26, 2012 Pentru cei pasionati de structura sistemelor operative:BareMetal is a 64-bit OS for x86-64 based computers. The OS is written entirely in Assembly, while applications can be written in Assembly or C/C++. Development of the Operating System is guided by its 3 target segments: High Performance Computing - Act as the base OS for a HPC cluster node. Running advanced computation workloads is ideal for a mono-tasking Operating System. Embedded Applications - Provide a platform for embedded applications running on commodity x86-64 hardware. Education - Provide an environment for learning and experimenting with programming in x86-64 Assembly as well as Operating System fundamentals.Current version is 0.5.3 - released February 23, 2012.BareMetal boots via Pure64 and has a command line interface with the ability to load programs/data from a hard drive. Current plans for v0.6.0 call for basic TCP/IP support, a native File System, as well as general bug fixes and optimizations. The creation of BareMetal was inspired by MikeOS - A 16-bit OS written in Assembly used as a learning tool to show how simple Operating Systems work.
