Open Source Boot Software - Page 16

The idea of this project is to create a bootable CD, something like SuSE live eval which can be used to boot any PC (or Mac, hopefully) on a Network and log it onto a cluster. Any help is welcome!

The CD Browser is a user interface system that starts when a CD placed in a drive, greeting the user and offering then an intuative interface to the options available on the media. This kit, along with the K-Meleon browser, will allow one to be created.

FreeRC is an init suite consisting of boot scripts written in Lua and a small, fast, and portable init daemon.

The Bootdisk-HOWTO describes how to design and build your own boot/root diskettes for Linux. These disks could be used as rescue disks or to test new system components.

A continuation of the Small Linux Project with a new team of developers. Small Linux is a distro which is designed to run on low-spec computers (386 and 2-3 mb of ram). Built upon uClibc and Busybox.

All Tini does is spawn a single child (Tini is meant to be run in a container), and wait for it to exit all the while reaping zombies and performing signal forwarding. It protects you from software that accidentally creates zombie processes, which can (over time!) starve your entire system for PIDs (and make it unusable). It ensures that the default signal handlers work for the software you run in your Docker image. For example, with Tini, SIGTERM properly terminates your process even if you didn't explicitly install a signal handler for it. It does so completely transparently! Docker images that work without Tini will work with Tini without any changes. Add Tini to your container, and make it executable. Then, just invoke Tini and pass your program and its arguments as arguments to Tini.

"Tiny windows 2000 terminal" is a simplest way to deploy diskless terminals for windows 2000 terminal server. Like LTSP or other, but don't need additional Linux server because no X windows, no NFS and no swap needed for terminals. Work at i486 with 8

TizOz OS is an operating system thought to learn how to develop operating systems. Coded in C its main objective is to reamin simple tough having a lot of capabilities.

Collection of small utilities for the ms windows operating systems, packaged as an esay-to-use no-installation program. It includes a directory ocupation browser, cd catalog, media player and some useful registry tricks.

The Trion Object Oriented Operating system is an OS that is designed to meet the needs for the 21st century, with a kernel written in C++ and modelled in UML, and lots of features. The project is run by a team of OSDev.org community members.

A triple boot solution for intel based macs.

This is a simple Python GUI that will allow you to turn off the PC automatically in the selected period of time. You can also cancel the previous turn offs.

This project aims to make such Open Source utilities by which one can shoot any problem with/without having technical knowledge/skills.Tuxguru's Rescue tablet resolves many problems including Passwords,Grub,Backup,Recovery,Partition,Installations,etc..

Two Kernel Monte is a Linux kernel module which allows Linux to load another kernel image into RAM and restart the machine from that kernel. The loader supports initial RAM disks and passing arbitrary kernel command line parameters to the new kernel.

The aim of this project is to provide an open source GPLv2 version of U-Boot second level bootloader, which will load, initialize and start the PowerPC-native version of AROS Research Operating System.

Many complex storage environments running within GNL/Linux could benefit from increased disassembly and resource remediation during shutdown. Underdog an alternate /init to create a "late" user context to resume control during shutdown to park media and detach network devices. Currently there is a fully working initramfs (mkinitramfs/mkinitrd) replacement that is capable of building the early user context images both as separate files or built into the kernel image. The working proof of concept code for the alternate /init is too messy to sahre just now. /doh.

The User-space System Device Enumeration (uSDE) facility manages the devices attached to a computer system. It is responsible for creating, deleting and maintaining the devices and networking interfaces for the system that it is installed on.

Small program to run from rcNG to start/stop user processes at bootup/shutdown. A few security checks are performed and the user's rcNG scripts are run as the UID of the owner.

Patched slackware installation boot/root disks to support the Vaio C1Vx USB floppy. Currently only Slack 8 is supported, with 8.1 coming soon.

ValDisk is a boot/root floppy set made for low-end machines (laptops) to be put to good use, such as for serial or network clients. It's goal is to run in as little as 4 MB of RAM, therefor it does not use a ramdisk.

vold is a Volume Daemon for Linux that can automatically mount CD-Roms, Harddrives, USB Flash Sticks, iPods etc. It is also possible to identify Partitions by UUID or volumename and mount them in a pre-defined Folder. Aims to replace mounting by hand!

WakeWorker is a freeware application which is intended to wake up your computer and then wake you with your favourite song. At the evening before sleep you can just set up alarm and song or you can predefine times and turn on repeat alarm and WakeWorker will wake up your computer and then you every predefined day at predefined time with your favourite song. Also you can set up that WW will turn your volume up.

WebSphere doesn't come with an init.d script to start it up when Linux boots; so I wrote one.
