Anos is a modern, opinionated, non-POSIX operating system (just a hobby, won’t be big and professional like GNU-Linux) for x86_64 PCs and RISC-V machines.
Anos currently comprises the
↫ Anos GitHub pageSTAGE3microkernel,SYSTEMuser-mode supervisor, and a base set of servers implementing the base of the operating system. There is a (WIP) toolchain for Anos based on Binutils, GCC (16-experimental) and Newlib (with a customlibgloss).
It’s written in C, runs on both x86-64 and RISC-V, and can run on real hardware too (but this hasn’t been tested on RISC-V just yet). For the x86 side of things, it’s strictly 64 bit, and requires a Haswell (4th Gen) chip or higher.
What an unfortunate name for an OS. 😮
Well, it’s “an OS”, so it fits. Just pronounce it slightly differently and it will be fine, just like the planet Uranus.
The author could call it “The an operating system” and then abbreviate it to “Thanos” 😉
That should work out well, I think! 😀
in spanish, anos is, literally, the plural of anus.
If i ever write an OS that spies on people on puepose, i swear i will name it the Redundant Collection of Telemetric Umpires!
Enjoy the spring !
