Subject: RE: Binary Translator 68k -> ...

Author: Mill (ppp-202-8.24-151.libero.it) Date: 11-24-2001 19:34 In my opinion, Flash is perfectly right. Motorola 680x0 processors are still the best nowadays. Unfortunately, they had not such sound commercial success as Intel's 1s. IMO, I think that such a Binary Translator already exiSTs: its name is PaCifiST... Coding an OS is not simply a matter of binary codes: is above all a matter of memory ranges and full knowledge of the different parts and cards that make up a machine. So, IMO, Java is not a proper language to develop an OS... Real problems are constituted by compatibility with all the "accessories" built up by several companies: please read "the drivers of the ... cards" and you can replace the dots with "sound", "video", "internal modem", "graphic accelerators" and so on... Writing a "stand-alone" OS is quite simple, but a proper OS "must" dialogate with all kind of (new) peripherals! Mill
