I've attached a pic of what I could find in the BIOS. All I see is AHCI, but no mention of 'legacy.' This was on the SATA configuration page. Is there somewhere else I should look? No, that's good, thanks. That second box that says 'AHCI' is probably the one, and that's the non-legacy setting you'v...

Hi, I am trying to boot from a flash drive, version 0.9. It gets hung up at the screen attached. Looks like it's looking for a PS/2 driver or something. I have a wireless keyboard/mouse attached to my system. I want to move my Windows 10 OS to a larger drive (who knew 100 GB's was too small?!?!? :s...

Wonder if you've given much thought to UEFI? Lots :-) I've developed several UEFI loaders at work, and the Visopsys one is nearly finished ... but ... 32-bit UEFI firmware is vanishingly rare nowadays - even a few years ago - I've only ever used one, and even Windows theoretically (not really) didn...

It hasn't been so long this time, but nonetheless it's time for another major update! Version 0.9 is now available from the download page: https://partitionlogic.org.uk/download/ Overview: This major release offers substantial upgrade of the underlying Visopsys operating system, a subtly updated loo...

Thanks Ron, Ok, yeah that makes more sense now :-) That list of disks in the installer is 'logical' disks, which for partition-able disks, means partitions. Maybe I should make that a bit more user-friendly and helpful for cases like this. I'll make another note to myself about that one. Hi Ron, I ...

Finally! It's been almost finished for so long, but it always seemed like it should have just a few more things :D https://visopsys.org/download/ Hope you like it. From the change log ( https://visopsys.org/download/change-log/ ): Overview: This major release offers a subtly updated look, enhanced n...

Thanks for listening (watching), Ron. Nowadays I don't have time (or else financial justification) for all of my old hobbies, but music and Visopsys are the 2 I couldn't give up! Luckily my wife is a professional musician - classical pianist - so she's understanding when I want to go off and do band...

My band released a new EP and video in February, if you're into that kind of thing (punk rock things). I'm the singer.

Hi Ron, Ahh, ha ha, no. I'm not quite sure how I'd even go about that. The majority of the code is in the monolithic kernel, which is fairly hierarchically flat. A meaningful diagram would have to describe a sequence of things that happen at initialization. It's like a big library after that - kind ...

It might be worth trying the new 0.85 release. I did a bunch of work on the APIC driver and interrupt infrastructure, and definitely solved some problems (for example, it can now boot on my own dev workstation)
