Shabdix GNU/Linux is a live CD based on KNOPPIX and Debian. It features KDE with the Farsi/Persian translation.

An XML-based tool used to schedule uptime spans that uses the Linux real time clock (RTC) daily alarm to automatically power on the system before the span begins. Tools to test whether the system must stay on (attempt to halt) are included.

SimplicityOS is a project designed to create a simple but powerful operating system for the pc. The kernel was designed from scrath to create a fast and stable base. The filsystem used by SimplicityOS was also designed from scratch for stability.

LAN management system - MySQL based system managing machines with DHCP, DNS through a PHP Web interface. Also contains a samba search engine.

I have developed and tested a small 32-bits Kernel running on i386. I want to share it to this developers community. The kernel is developed in Assebly Language and it have bootloader, multitask, etc, etc...

Kernel and utilities to run Linux on small machines, 2-3 megs of ram.

Small Linux from Network is a little Linux distro loaded from a network connection using a modified version of the DrakX (Mandriva Linux installer) loader. The OS image can be loaded from an HTTP, FTP or NFS server.

Kernel patches and tools providing OS based support for suspending your Linux computer.

This is the fifth or sixth generation of this idea, the big difference being that we have written some bootloader code and have started mapping out the kernel layout and structure. We have decided upon a core programming language for the kernel, and the core language for almost everything else. With a focus on isolating the MAJOR kernel features from the system itself, in what until now has remained research only instances, we hope to create a fully functioning exokerne. All code at this time will be available only via a git repository.

Linux Live-CDs/-USBs which boot with activated sshd. No need for Monitor, Keyboard or Mouse. But you need Ethernet with a dhcpd.

Symbion Daemon Tool is a daemon master tool. It runs and monitors other daemons, restart it when necessary. If a daemon supports SDT then it can communicate with it and it can be controlled through it.

System V Hierarchical InitScript allows to parallelize the start of services in a given System V runlevel by defining dependencies between them. And it is only 150 lines of shell script...

This is Rivoreo custom edition of the sysvinit program. The original sysvinit project page is at http://savannah.nongnu.org/projects/sysvinit/ The original sysvinit Debian package project page is at http://alioth.debian.org/projects/pkg-sysvinit/

The T-BASE OS Project aims on developing a new OS Kernel (BASE) with a brand new shell which will support many existing programs.

Talkware TIARA, an Openbios/GRUB/PFORTH composite, BIOS replacement. Boots an unmodifed linux kernel from an IDE drive or ethernet, using only 128kb of flash. Works with INTEL/AMD K6/2-450, SiS 530/5595 and 8139 enet. VGA & Serial console supported.

This project was previously oriented towards creating an AI based Operating System. However new visitors should refer to www.theasciiproject.com for information about what this project has developed into.

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!

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.

"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.

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.

TrustedGRUB extends the GRUB bootloader with TCG support. This makes it possible to provide a secure bootstrap architecture. The whole boot process is measured and - by support of a Trusted Platform Module (TPM) - the system integrity is verifyable.
