This is great! I remember running System 3 on a 386 back when MS-DOS was king.

- Rochus 5mo agoThanks. There is actually also an i386 version of the system in the repository, where I modified the kernel so it runs with Multiboot, making installations much easier. An essential achievement for both platforms were the stand-alone tools, i.e. I can compile and link the whole Oberon system on Linux or any other platform (see https://github.com/rochus-keller/op2/ https://github.com/rochus-keller/op2/). I even implemented an IDE which I used for the development (see https://github.com/rochus-keller/activeoberon/ https://github.com/rochus-keller/activeoberon/).
- anta40 5mo agoCool. Is macOS (Apple Silicon) also supported? If not, well there's another reason to have a Linux VM ready :)
- Rochus 5mo agoTechnically yes, but since Apple locked down their OS completely, you might have to compile the tools yourself on your machine so the OS allows them to start at all.
