Project Islay

My very work in progress hobby kernel and maybe in the future some sort of os. The main purpose of this project is not to make a fully working os, it's merely a learning project, so use it own your own risk.

Open Source Acknowledgements

During the creation of the project, a few different sources of open source code has been used. I'm very grateful for their work, and would like to acknowledge them.

  • Sebastian Raase, a colleague and friend of mine, has not only contributed with great design ideas, I have also used his ROMFS FUSE implementation (licensed under MIT, see LICENSES/romfs-license.txt) as a foundation of the kernel's romfs implementation.

  • Minix 2, by Andrew S. Tanenbaum and Albert S. Woodhull. Apart from the book itself (Operating Systems: Design And Implementation), which has been very helpfully in describing some os concepts, some Minix code (licensed under 3-Clause BSD, see LICENSES/minix-license.txt) has served as a foundation to parts of the file system implementation.

  • OSDev Wiki and its community have provided valuable insights in os design both through tutorials and forum threads, parts of the kernel contains some code snippets from those sourced licensed under Public Domain (CC0).
