what about "<linux-assembly@vger.kernel.org>"?
did the very wise one lock you out from that list, too?

if so, we should really think about moving the list to some other, un-censored 
place.

btw, you know what 'rms@gnu.org' stands for?
I doubt that Him would be interested in anything but His own 'philosophy'.

Forreal.tgz

[Rick Hohensee]

I have a working demo of 386 Forreal Mode (32-bit "unprotected") up on the
net along with the Ha3sm osimplay devel environment that spawned it. I
JUST put it up in http://linux01.gwdg.de/pub/cLIeNUX/interim/Forreal.tgz

That's not the dir that can supposedly withstand the Slashdot Effect. If
you tell someone about Forreal.tgz tell them it should be up or up soon in

ftp://ftp.gwdg.de/pub/linux/install/clienux/interim

I don't have Usenet posting access at the moment. I was using
linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org as a backdoor to Usenet, but the
Transmicrosofties were watching.

Below is a synopsis of what's in the tarball. There are several items that
reflect a lot of work.

This is the juicier parts of my /Ha3sm directory here at cLIeNUX0 bundled
up for distribution. Here's an underview...

                        talks a lot about branching the source tree on

                This particular top demos Forreal Mode. ~clipped is
                a live Forreal Mode bootable. cp to /dev/fd0,
                reboot, be the first on your block to use the
                386 mode INTeL missed.

                        as -a  listing is returned to the terminal.

That's only 2 levels deep. There's a lot more code files, but most is
untested. What's missing for a complete PC OS devel environment is Ralf
Brown's, a unix shell prompt, and a pizza delivery phone number. And much
of Ralf is peppered about the sources.

This stuff works on Linux, uh,

An actual

                                doesn't use anything but Bash, but I also
use Lynx, Pico, ed, cat, grep, and a few others. Not much though. I only
trygas when I think I've got a bug in osimplay itself, which is getting
less frequent. A hex editor is handy. I use cLIeNUX binedit, which is a
tweak of bpe, but bpe needed the tweak badly.
