Things are getting a lot farther now in the code base now that I've picked back up on coding. I will be creating a list of things to do for the 0.1 release.
Committed new ne2000 NIC driver. Its just a start. Cant do much yet, but hopefully in the next couple of weeks i'll be able to respond to pings on a network.
ominOS now has initial basic read-only ext2fs support for block devices.
Lots of progress lately. VFS is working. Fat12/16/32 Driver (read only). ATA driver (read only). Devfs, rootfs (both virtual memory based filesystems). basic port of newlib (redhats embedded libc). Tinysh (very very minimal shell)
TODO: Work out the cluster of bugs in the VFS. Start on Ext2 driver possibly. Maybe (just maybe) start on some PCI bus driver?
I am working on implementing userspace processes into ominOS. I am hoping to have that done in the next few weeks. i'm also working on a port of Waba Java VM to run on ominOS. granted. this will only support console based java apps. as ominOS will not have a GUI for a long long time. (read: years)
