Projects

FreeBSD

FreeBSD is an advanced operating system for x86 compatible (including Pentium and Athlon), amd64 compatible (including Opteron, Athlon64, and EM64T), UltraSPARC, IA-64, PC-98, (32-bit and 64-bit) MIPS and ARM architectures. It is derived from BSD, the version of UNIX developed at the University of ... [More] California, Berkeley. It is developed and maintained by a large team of individuals. Additional platforms are in various stages of development. [Less]

NetBSD

NetBSD is a free, secure, and highly portable Unix-like Open Source operating system available for many platforms, from 64-bit Opteron machines and desktop systems to handheld and embedded devices. Its clean design and advanced features make it excellent in both production and research ... [More] environments, and it is user-supported with complete source. Many applications are easily available through pkgsrc, the NetBSD Packages Collection. [Less]

U-Boot

A boot loader for Embedded boards based on PowerPC, ARM, MIPS and other processors, which can be installed in a boot ROM and used to initialize and test the hardware or to download and run application code. The development of U-Boot is closely related to Linux: some parts of the source code ... [More] originate in the Linux source tree, we have some header files in common, and special provision has been made to support booting of Linux images. Some attention has been paid to make this software easily configurable and extendable. For instance, all monitor commands are implemented with the same call interface, so that it's very easy to add new commands. Also, instead of permanently adding rarely used code (for instance hardware test utilities) to the monitor, you can load and run it dynamically. [Less]

AROS

The AROS Research Operating System is a lightweight, efficient and flexible desktop operating system, designed to help you make the most of your computer. It's an independent, portable and free project, aiming at being compatible with AmigaOS 3.1 at the API level (like Wine, unlike UAE), while ... [More] improving on it in many areas. The source code is available under an open source license, which allows anyone to freely improve upon it. [Less]

HelenOS

HelenOS is a microkernel-based multiserver operating system designed from scratch. It decomposes key operating system functionality into many isolated, intensively communicating server processes that reside entirely in user space. HelenOS thus provides a computing environment that has several ... [More] virtues, such as flexibility, increased robustness, well defined explicit interfaces and reduced complexity of individual components as compared to other operating systems. HelenOS runs on seven different processor architectures, ranging from a 32-bit uniprocessor little-endian ARMv4 to a 64-bit multicore big-endian UltraSPARC T1. [Less]

PearPC - PowerPC Emulator

PearPC is a platform-independent PowerPC architecture emulator capable of running most PowerPC operating systems. It includes a Just- In-Time compiler for x86 processors.

Graphics32

Graphics32 is a graphics library for Delphi and Kylix/CLX. Optimized for 32-bit pixel formats, it provides fast operations with pixels and graphic primitives. In most cases Graphics32 considerably outperforms the standard TBitmap/TCanvas methods.

AuroraUX

AuroraUX is an operating system distribution based on the OpenSolaris kernel source base. The goal of the AuroraUX project is to create a high reliability core operating system using the US Department of Defense-developed Ada programming language. While it is meant to be minimalistic and used as a ... [More] base for other distributions, it will also be functional as an operating system in itself. #auroraux @ irc.freenode.net [Less]

GXemul

GXemul is a framework for full-system computer architecture emulation. It emulates (networks of) machines, consisting of processors (ARM, MIPS, Motorola 88K, PowerPC, and SuperH) and various surrounding hardware components. It is complete enough to allow several unmodified "guest" ... [More] operating systems (e.g. NetBSD) to run inside the emulator as if they were running on real hardware. [Less]

yaboot

Yaboot is a PowerPC bootloader for Open Firmware based machines including New World Apple Macintosh, IBM RS/6000, IBM pSeries and IBM OpenPower machines.
