Hi All, I was talking to Eric a few days ago about this exfat thread and while we are worried with the license issues I would like to volunteer myself to port current exfat from linux kernel to freedos
Of course, once it's a no-trivial thing i would like to ask your support i cannot promise anything by now, once i know that talk is cheap as Mateusz and Tom reported :) So, what do you think? what is the svn link to checkout the freedos kernel code? does freedos have any vfs-equivalent interface? which files are involved? is Pat's book a valid/current reference to freedos kernel? which books would you suggest me to read? what is the easiest way to setup the compiler? i mean, should i setup a freedos vm with with openwatcom or freeware version of tc or do we have a way to 'cross-compile' freedos kernel on linux and use the vm just to test the code? Suggestions are always very welcomed :P Kind Regards, Geraldo Netto Sapere Aude => Non dvcor, dvco São Paulo, Brasil, -3gmt site: http://exdev.sf.net/ On 25 September 2015 at 19:14, Ralf Quint <freedos...@gmail.com> wrote: > On 9/24/2015 12:33 PM, Mercury Thirteen wrote: >> We could undercut the competition and make our own free FAT >> implementation which does fills the same niche as exFAT. >> > Which will be extremely hard to do without interfering with those patents... > > Ralf > > --- > This email has been checked for viruses by Avast antivirus software. > https://www.avast.com/antivirus > > > ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ > _______________________________________________ > Freedos-devel mailing list > Freedos-devel@lists.sourceforge.net > https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/freedos-devel ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ _______________________________________________ Freedos-devel mailing list Freedos-devel@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/freedos-devel
