Squeak No Operating System http://squeaknos.sourceforge.net
Operating System: An operating system is a collection of things that don't fit into a language. There shouldn't be one. -- Dan Ingalls, in Byte Magazine, 1981
OliBye got interested in this project a long time ago, getting SqueakNOS to run is fairly complex, my interest was in in trying to make a SqueakNOS boot CD so that anybody could try it. SqueakNOS is already written using the linux boot loader, so my theory was I could get ISOLinux to load SqueakNOS in the same way linux distributions are often installed.
Three years passed, with not much action, but now theory is practise.
ISO Boot Disk Notes
- http://isgwww.cs.uni-magdeburg.de/~raab/squeak/image/2.3b/
- I've finally figured out how to get Smalltalk majorShrink to work. Which yields a 2Meg image. This means I don't have to get around the 8Meg limit imposed by isolinux. Which meant I can finally make a bootable CD to boot SqueakNOS? 3 years after first taking on the task. The magic is the method that flips your MVC project to be the root project. Then you just preceed past errors, and bingo.

Download the iso image give it a try. No responsibility accepted!. https://xpdeveloper.com/~byeo/images/boot.iso
I hope to atleast publish my Makefile so other people can make their own images.
