My personal TODO list

Open ivandavidov opened this issue 6 years ago • 5 comments

  • MLL version for Raspberry Pi. Start with very minimal components (statically linked binaries).

  • MIT's xv6 course https://pdos.csail.mit.edu/6.828/2018/xv6.html

  • Ed King's "Linux Namespaces" set of articles https://medium.com/@teddyking/linux-namespaces-850489d3ccf

  • (Done) Design and implement proper layer merging in MINCS (Dockerfile actions are ignored in MINCS) https://github.com/mhiramat/mincs

  • Read the "Linux-Device-Drivers-Development" book https://github.com/PacktPublishing/Linux-Device-Drivers-Development

  • Close/implement/cleanup the MLL issues here!!!

Question, what is your plan with xv6 in respect to Minimal Linux Live?

MLL and xv6 are two different operating systems. They are incompatible, so I have no plans, except to go through the MIT's tutorial regarding xv6, since I have quite solid experience with x86 ASM.

Ah I understand. Question, would it be possible to build up the xv6 operating system with lets say a C Library and use it as a base of a greater Unix operating system? Or is that impractical? Kinda like a Unix from Scratch in a sense.

You already know the answer. Go on and try it.

Impractical. Gotcha.
