Help choosing correct OS

Applications development, KoOS API questions
  • In MenuetOS system requirements much more. Better use KolibriOS. The rest of you decide. If all write from scratch, try KolibriOS.

  • That's what I was thinking. KolibriOS seems to be more active than MenuetOS. My only concern is the SSD SATA driver. I think tiny core linux has SSD SATA drivers, but it's a much larger OS and probably has a high learning curve to learn linux kernel driver coding.

    Thanks
  • KolibriOS does not support AHCI SATA, only SATA in IDE mode.

  • Keep in mind that an application can only address 2 Gigabytes of RAM currently, and only 1 processor thread (core) is supported.

    "The only way I now to date to develop applications from inside Kolibri is to use FASM"

    I guess the only way to write c programs for KolibriOS is to use another OS such as windows? What I need a simple fastbooting lightweight OS where I can compile & run the c code for my project in the same lightweight OS. Any suggestions? Hopefully something that tiny, tight, fast, fits on usb. Maybe this is asking too much?

    Another Small C http://www.menuetos.net/M32.htm - should be modified, since it relies on old system functions.
