The following list of things are working on the ODW at this time: 1) Virtual Firmware Interface (first level bootstrap) 2) inetboot (aka NFS bootstrap) 3) core kernel (unix and genunix linked together) 4) krtld (kernel run-time loader) 5) dynamic kernel module loading 6) virtual memory management 7) trap handling 8) interrupts 9) DDI (device driver interface) framework 10) locking 11) device and nexus drivers (ethernet, serial port, ISA bus, PCI bus, root nexus) 12) TCP/IP stack 13) NFS stack 14) exec 15) scheduling 16) clock 17) system calls 18) everything else I've forgotten to include It takes a LOT to get to the point of being able to execute /sbin/init (or anything else). We will now move on to dynamically linked user applications. This means getting the run-time loader working and all the libraries built Signed (want to know more?!), Smart Guy from Sun bbrv@... |

Wow! This is fantastic news! Is there any way seeing it on my own ODW? I mean a binary, as I don't have the tools set up to compile Solaris over here... Now I wonder, which non Linux OS will I first boot in my Pegasos or EFIKA: MorphOS 2.0, FreeBSD or Solaris :) |
