Pe 25 August se implinesc 10 ani de Linux (vezi mesajul de mai jos, gasit la http://www.li.org/linuxhistory.php). La http://www.linux10.org/t-shirt/ se gaseste un t-shirt amuzant. And, of course, daca sunteti prin Sunnyvale, CA, trageti o fuga la "Linux 10th Anniversary Picnic/BBQ". From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] (Linus Benedict Torvalds) Newsgroups: comp.os.minix Subject: What would you like to see most in minix? Summary: small poll for my new operating system Message-ID: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Date: 25 Aug 91 20:57:08 GMT Organization: University of Helsinki Hello everybody out there using minix - I'm doing a (free) operating system (just a hobby, won't be big and professional like gnu) for 386(486) AT clones. This has been brewing since april, and is starting to get ready. I'd like any feedback on things people like/dislike in minix, as my OS resembles it somewhat (same physical layout of the file-system (due to practical reasons) among other things). I've currently ported bash(1.08) and gcc(1.40), and things seem to work. This implies that I'll get something practical within a few months, and I'd like to know what features most people would want. Any suggestions are welcome, but I won't promise I'll implement them :-) Linus ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) PS. Yes - it's free of any minix code, and it has a multi-threaded fs. It is NOT protable (uses 386 task switching etc), and it probably never will support anything other than AT-harddisks, as that's all I have :-(. -- ___ <o-o> Viorel ANGHEL <vang @ lug.ro> [`-'] -"-"- In Linux We Trust. --- Send e-mail to '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' with 'unsubscribe rlug' to unsubscribe from this list.
