Open Source Desktop Operating Systems Operating System Kernels

ReactOS is an open source effort to develop a quality operating system that is compatible with applications and drivers written for the Microsoft Windows NT family of operating systems (NT4, 2000, XP, 2003).

The AROS Research Operating System is an effort to implement an Open Source and portable operating system that is compatible with AmigaOS(TM). Originally, it was meant as a direct reimplementation, but already has features not existing in AmigaOS.

FreeDOS is an open source DOS-compatible operating system that you can use to play classic DOS games, run legacy business software, or write new DOS programs. Any program that works on MS-DOS should also run on FreeDOS.

First version of OpenVPN opensource software that is compatible with IPv6.

DOS/32 Advanced DOS Extender is a drop-in replacement for the DOS/4GW DOS Extender and compatibles. Being fast, small and flexible DOS/32A can be used in many environments, from embedded systems to DOS emulators, by both developers and end users alike.

nxtOSEK is an RTOS for LEGO Mindstorms NXT. nxtOSEK consists of I/O driver part of LEJOS NXJ, TOPPERS/ATK1 RTOS, and glue code for them. You can write applications for NXT in ANSI-C/C++. Check nxtOSEK site: http://lejos-osek.sourceforge.net

This project is for the portable computer "Cambridge Z88", produced by Sir Clive Sinclair (of ZX Spectrum fame). We continue to support software development (ROM, 3rd party apps on memory cards and desktop applications). We have moved to https://cambridgez88.jira.com/wiki (development, source code and documentation). However, we continue to publish files for download here.

Haiku is an open-source operating system currently in development designed from the ground up for desktop computing.

DOS-C Kernel is an MS-DOS compatible kernel and the original FreeDOS kernel.

This is GIMI, the Graphical Interfaced Multitasking Interpreter. One of the few GUIs made in QuickBASIC featuring multitasking. This one has its own script language for making programs, damm fast SVGA modes, lots of programs, and more!

This is the free Developer Edition of BeOS 5 PE with updated drivers & Software. The Developers are the most important people we needed for the success of BeOS and later OpenBeOS.

This project is an effort to develop open source software for all old platforms, like MSX, Commodore, AMIGA, Atari, ..... and collect technical information about old platforms, keeping the "old skool" flame alive.

Public Domain Operating System (currently x86 and 80386 and S/370 and S/390). Note that latest source code is here in git, but latest executables and packaged source are at http://pdos.org

While I may have started with Linux 0.11, I've expanded this to include several older relases of the Linux kernel that you can cross compile from Windows, and run on Qemu. I've managed to get the older versions of the software tools running on Windows, so that there is no major invasive source changes, outside of either broken drivers, or massaging the makefiles to find things in the new paths, and calling the appropriate tools where needed. Linux 0.10 is the first oldest version of Linux that is somewhat usable. While it lacks things like TCP/IP, and robust filesystems, it does offer a small kernel size, perfect for playing around with. You can comfortably make changes on Windows, re-compile and test all from a 'normal' desktop.

A base for programs. Includes algorythms for Q-learning and SOM's etc. too. Examples: Hamron: Simulates evolution, uses the 2D-renderer. DriveUnit: created for school, for a robotic arm, uses the 3D-renderer. Hlearn: http://www.sagenb.org/home/pub/8

A distribution of FreeDOS which strives for Ease-Of-Use and Stability, aiming to offer a regular release schedule, utilizing the wide range of DOS-APPS available.

The Vortex project consists of 2 things. The Vortex OS and VParse. The OS is multitasking and handles a lot of features. VParse is a stand alone Vertex2 parser. Vertex is vortex's scripting language. Pre 0.7 is QBasic and 0.7 is C++.

uMZix is an UNIX implementation for Sharp MZ-800. It is based on UZIX OS.

Mirror of: https://github.com/osdldbt/ This Database Test Suite aims to create database workload test kits used to simulate heavy user loads for OLTP, Decision Support, and e-commerce database transactions. These test kits can also be used to gather performance results for Linux and other

BNL OS is a free, modern operating system based on the design of Windows XP/2003.This is not a Linux based system, and shares none of the unix architecture. Please remember, this is in the development stage, and is not reccommended for everyday use.

This project is a implementation of layers. Use Virtual machines & virtual adapters alike an onion! Another operating solution instead of Microsoft Windows Server operating system. It is to be used via remote controlling. The special new "Cktool32" will make it easy to handle *Ck64Krnl*.
