OnyxOS

For quite some time, I've been working on a homebrew OS project coded in ASM and C, and it's starting to get quite advanced, for an OS that has been coded for less than a year. It's UNIX-like, with an FS structure similiar to that of Linux but with the root partition mounted at /system (/dev, /proc, /mnt, are virtual directories handled by the VFS). I have quite a few screenshots, for now:

So this is an OS you've written from scratch? I want a download link! This better not be a fake, because that looks suspiciously like Linux... Oh, and one screenshot doesn't count as "Quite a few."

C++?

Sounds interesting, where did you learn how to code an OS from scratch?

I quite clearly stated it was UNIX-like, so what were you expecting? More screenshots will come now. As for a download link, I'm not ready to release yet and a rewrite is under progress anyway because my code is embarassingly buggy in the screenshots you see. The oldest pieces of code in it right now date back to when I was following os-dev tutorials!

It's coded in C and NASM, and I learnt how to code an OS at osdev.org.

And more screenshots:


Ignore the PID reading, printf function was a bit broken at the time of the screenshot.
