Brainix running inside Bochs


Brainix is a microkernel-based, Unix-like operating system. It includes support for virtual memory, preemptive multitasking, asynchronous message passing, and the ext2 filesystem. It was written from scratch and runs on IA-32 computers.

Brainix was inspired by (but shares no code with) Minix.

Brainix is open source, distributed under the GPL.

Status


Currently, Brainix boots, initializes its sub-systems, then passes messages. It is not mature enough to support a shell and utilities. But its developers are active.
