I have not personally worked on anything part of the kernel of SqueakNOS, but, I know that you can download the code. I downloaded the most recent version as an iso and mounted it and got full access to the kernel code, and I am working on understanding it.<br>

Hi everybody,<br>
<br>
Karl Romberg from squeak-dev mentioned SqueakNOS in response to my questions<br>
about Squeak on the bare metal and about self-virtualization.<br>
<br>
Has anyone here worked on SqueakNOS and the kernel of a more conventional OS?<br>
I'm curious whether SqueakNOS's structure makes it easier or harder to port<br>
than other OSs. From your description of USB problems I guess the lack of<br>
documentation and tools are problems for you, as they seem to be for other<br>
OSs.<br>
<br>
What about debugging SqueakNOS with VMware or something similar? Has any-<br>
one tried, and is SqueakNOS's architecture easier or harder to debug than<br>
other OSs? The VM interprets bytecodes, which creates one of the classic<br>
barriers to easy debugging, but perhaps the VM is also simpler than other<br>
OS kernels.<br>
<br>
Thanks,<br>
<br>
