WinOS-Kernel

A basic operating system kernel, by me. This will be updated everyday if I have time. This kernel is based on https://github.com/iknowbrain/NIDOS.

Again, this is a kernel. You could infact boot / test the kernel with qemu-system-i386 -kernel /boot/kernel.bin

The code will be uploaded to here soon.

About this kernel

This project is based on https://github.com/iknowbrain/NIDOS and will be updated everytime when I have time coding C :) There is a lot of weird bugs on the kernel, so if you want to contibrute to the project, you can!

This kernel is made for fun and for educational pusposes only.

Tutorials

How to compile the kernel only.

This make file has been fixed to make it possible to compile the ISO file

To compile the kernel, do make.

Then it will automatically boot a qemu instance, with the kernel running.

Example of the kernel's shell

The kernel file (only) is located in the folder winos, which is winos/boot/kernel.bin

How to compile the kernel with the GRUB bootloader

To compile the kernel with the GRUB bootloader as the .iso file.

Do make build. And you will see an iso file in the project directory,

the file is winos-release.iso

Again, this is a fork from the NIDOS kernel operating system project. Bug fixed from the original NIDOS project:

• Fixed GRUB not detecting the kernel file.
• Fixed .iso compiling

Have Fun!
