KolibriOS

[RoniX]

Hello, I don't know about how does KolibriOS loads de ram drive.

Is it loaded after the kernel has been loaded into memory completely or is it called while loading it from booting process after getting into PMODE?

Ok. the fact is that I see in the boot menu that I can choose
"c:kolibri.img" so it means it wont load from another drive ?
I mean, I can boot only from C: ?

I guess you guys have done a far step into fat and ntfs filesystem support. So it would be great to load the ramdrive detecting the partition where kolibri boots (that is for non floppy computers).

However, I've seen that there is a HD Kolibri version, I don't know how that works...

PS: why wouldn't support this OS a EXT2FS fielsystem ?
I know there are some programs written for windows that reads from this partitions

take a look at their sources i think they are GNU GPL

original source of that prog. http://uranus.it.swin.edu.au/~jn/linux/explore2fs-old.htm

Best regards and keep up the good work

1) At loading with Floppy the loading IMG is made in Real Mode. At loading from the hard disk the loading IMG is made in Protect Mode.
2) Kolibri searches the file kolibri.img on all sections and hard disks, which the system has detected. The directory kolibri at first is viewed, and then the root directory is viewed.
3) HD Kolibri the version in the given moment is experimental and contains some errors.
4) EXT2FS from the large share of reliance will be maintained in the future. Do not forget that, the kernel is written on Assembler.
