Version 0.6.0 Released
Monday, June 19, 2006
Version 0.6.0 of AMOS has at last been released! A large amount of bugs have been fixed throughout the kernel, including a critical bug in the physical memory manager. The FAT driver has been improved with write support. A new CPU bound test application of the Towers of Hanoi has been included for stress testing the system. I have tested 0.6.0 on VMWare, Qemu, Bochs and a variety of machines in my lab and it seems to be stable.
The Implementation documentation for 0.6.0 is also up on the site, get the PDF here. Its a high level look at the kernel code. Used allongside the source code comments should provide a good way for people to understand the implementation. If I get around to fixing up the design documentation I will put it up also. As an aside the AMOS project recieved a first class honours result! :)
I would be gratefull to everybody who visits this site to give the 0.6.0 release a test and maby even look over the code and forward me on all bug reports, cheers.
