How to write an OS in 1460.96 days
There is an old (ancient) Chinese saying, which I have sometimes heard described as a curse: May you live in interesting times. When I first heard this saying, it wasn’t at all clear to me why it was considered a curse. But lately, in the last five or so years, it has become increasingly clear. Living in interesting times leaves little time for the things that one might be trying to accomplish.
Monarc is a kernel and operating system that I have been developing for the past few years. It grew from an earlier project, the Monarc PowerPC emulator, which runs on top of an embedded kernel I wrote specifically for the task. I liked the name enough that I decided to hoist it over to my efforts in OS development, along with some of the original code.
Today is the launch of the Monarc Development Blog! Here I will record and discuss happenings and ideas as I continue to develop the project. It is my hope that these posts will be of some value to the OS Dev community, whether they be informative, interesting, provocative, or even humorous.
Thanks for reading,
