DremDOS

What is DremDOS?

DremDOS is a simple disk operating system made with C# that is built with COSMOS, a set of building blocks to make operating systems with high-level programming languages such as C#, VB, F#, etc.

Let Me Show You Its Features

DremDOS is currently very basic and is unable to do much.<br />
However, these are its current features:
  •  Create and delete directories
  •  List directory contents
  • Change the current directory
  • Create and edit files with Kitty, which is not a reference to the Linux command "cat" at all
  • Copy and move files
  • Delete files
  • Clear the screen
  • Check the time
  • Calculate basic math problems
  • The ability to use every CPU cycle to beep
  • List all* connected drives
  • A very basic GUI (with a mouse driver). Thanks, SparrOSDeveloperTeam!
  • Shut down the computer once you're bored of it
*It seems COSMOS only supports one drive. Technically the code should allow DremDOS to see multiple drives once the filesystem/hard drive drivers are fully implemented.

Hacking a SMART Response XE

The Tiny Computer of Your Dreams Note: I'm writing this on my phone so no headers and decent lists and stuff. I'll fix it later eventually probably. T oday I learned about a portable device called the SMART Response XE. Basically, it used to be an expensive unit to let teachers answer questions because it is too hard to raise hands (OK more for testing). Now that Chromebooks exist, they are basically useless, so you can get them for insanely cheap on eBay. This device, however, is basically an Arduino. Bundle it with a 2.4GHz transceiver, a screen, and a keyboard, and you have yourself one of the most amazing little bits of kit that are basically begging to be hacked. Anyway, I bought a lot of 5 functional units on eBay as well as 2 CP2102 serial adapters and 50 5x2 pin headers on Amazon (I only wanted a couple but whatever). It also has 128K of flash(?) so I have plenty of room to play with. Some madlad  wrote a support library for it  so I have almost all the previous functi...

Hacking a Smart Response XE (Pt.2)

Image
Updates I'm baaaaack! Let's Catch Up I finally decided to pick up this project yet again and, with some better soldering skills (and tools! Pinecil is great!) under my belt, I successfully flashed  Larry's SRXE Bootloader  to a board and fixed the UART connection, which means that I can now develop my very own firmware for the Smart Response XE! Well, by start, I really mean that I've already started, and it's really starting to take shape. Care For A Demo? By the way, if you're curious as to what Innonet is, I'll talk about it briefly in this blog post, and more information on it will come soon ™. The firmware will be uploaded to a  GitHub repository  in a preview state by the time this blog post releases. What Exactly is Done so Far? So far, the UI is about 70% done (most of it works, need to implement other dropdown menus and fix some bugs). If you have a keen eye, you will notice the header said DremXE, as opposed to the original name (which was Dremduin...
