The Place to Start for Operating System Developers

I don't recall any tutorials or articles that focuses on Linux. Article about loopmounting contains info about Linux, FreeBSD and OpenBSD, but this doesn't count, because it's not entirely about Linux, and loopmounting isn't supported by Windows (if you don't count 3rd party hassles as loopmounting). Many tutorials use GNUs toolchain, but it isn't tied to Linux.KotuxGuy wrote:I beg to differ; virtually all of the wiki tutorials focus on Linux.
Examples wanted.KotuxGuy wrote:OK,then, *nix in general.
Used this exact tutorial on Windows. mkisofs has been ported to Windows.KotuxGuy wrote:http://wiki.osdev.org/Bootable_El-Torit ... RUB_Legacy
Uh, no. I can use Makefiles on Windows too. A *nix concept perhaps, but not *nix-specific.
Perhaps *nix specific as you need Cygwin on Windows to complete this. Or MinGW.
The article was actually written for those on Windows using Cygwin or something similar.
See above.
Way to post a link that isn't actually part of the wiki?
Example source code is *nix-specific?
Seriously, none of these tutorials are Linux-specific. Things like loop mounting are by nature specific to an OS.This is just for *nix only tutorials or articles.
Why does there need to be? Most of the articles work out of the box on Windows.I could not find even 1 article that focused on Windows only.
What, Cygwin? That's the extent of the "extra stuff" you need. It even has a nice package manager to make life really easy.KotuxGuy wrote:Oh, come on. For Windows to work with all that stuff, you have to bolt extra stuff on to it.And almost all of that source code is made to compile with *nix tools.
