I dont want to make my own, but I know you can alter some O/Ss if they are open source. Why would you want to alter an O/S? What would you want to improve or implement in the O/S that isnt already there?
Also, is this written in C and the assembly level?
Thanks

A lot of people just play around with the source to learn some, and see how they work. As for what they're written in, generally the low-level parts are in ASM, although the majority is in C.
Honestly I'd like to build a toolkit that is based on Standard C++ programming. There are currently none out there right now. I would than use it to build a desktop. The best candidate software architecture is FreeX86.
Ofcourse before anything like this, I should post a few C++ programs. I need practice, especially with the STL.
I'll give $10 to whoever can write an OS in BF!
hello, internet!
well. alot of ppl re-compile linux so it is optimized to run faster
on their hardware - for ex., on an athlon, because the linux kernel is compiled for intel 386 or better, so recompiling it
speeds it up.

Haha, I bet it's possible.
*begins porting Alamo (ShellOS) to BF*
>Why would you want to alter an O/S?<
Are you asking this as a general question, or more of a personal question?
As a general question, you'd alter an OS to make it the way you like it, pretty simple.
As a personal question, I don't like altering OSes. It's pointless IMO, but that's only in my situation. THere are a lot of people that can benefit greatly from hacking their OSS operating system.
well this stuff of creatin OS keeps popping up on this board now and then
