OS

**masterof_none** · #1 13-05-2003 OS

hello everybody,
this summer, I plan to learn how OS works.
I hope RC'ers who have already learned the concepts of OS, can help me...
visit the page <a href=http://www-scf.usc.edu/~hasran/sawit.html>here</a> for updates.
I hope I can post my discovery every day....
please do post anything here or email directly to me...
I hope one day i' got one working OS running....
thanks.

that's a good idea, well then, just wanna share with others here that, one of our members said that most of our forums' thread are too technical...hmm i'm sad to hear that.

However, this is a good idea...i'm working on Machintosh...haha I wanna isntall in my pc (running linux then emulate machintosh..)

yeah yeah, people said that it's impossible, but i found the way..haha (waiting for cd from my bro In malaysia)

what do u mean emulate mac? just the interface or how mac actually works?

**bachok83** · #4 16-05-2003

hhahahahaha....not emulate just interface....but actually run Mac....
ok this is how it works, why mac cannot be itstalled in PC?
mas has a rom chip that is just like a RAM in PC, but this is not a memory stick like RAM.

That ROM is "read only memory" and is necessary to run MAC. So, hackers has turned it to software that actually functions the sam way as the ROM chip (it's call ROM file). However, you need to generate that ROM file from actual MAC machine to get the binary code (which is the crucial part). It's crucial because i dont have MAC, not that it's hard to do... hehehe

Then it can be installed into normal PC. Talking about ROM chip and ROM file, it must have a different access speed, as normally accessing data from chip is much more faster than accessing data from your hard disk.

However, i still dont know whether that lower in speed will cause too much degradation in performance. It's worth a try.

looks good. Isn't this something like the program (I forget what it's called) that allows you to install multiple OS on one com?

Virtual PC isn't it? Just a guess... because I've heard of it...

**masterof_none** · #8 13-10-2003

If I'm not mistaken, virtual PC is just for Mac user.
Mac user can access Windows just like any apps.

The picture above is the simulation of Mac OS X,
Apple's new OS, in Linux.

soli... i just wanna share... is it ok?

virtual PC is also available for Windows user... by Connectix.. it has capability to run multiple os simultaneously in windows...

but.. i haven't try it out because it only supported by intel processor... i use neither.. me use VIA C3 and AMD.. hehehe... cikai maaa!
