Weenix
Here there is lots of useful information about Weenix, the operating system that is written by CS 169 students, and partially by 167 students. You probably won't find it very useful until later in the course.
Getting started
External tools
- Bochs is the x86 emulator currently used to run Weenix.
- Cscope is a great tool for code navigation.
- Git is a distributed version control system which you can use to locally version control your work on Weenix. The TAs may also use it to provide bug fixes and comment updates during the semester.
Weenix-specific tools
Guides
Testing
Some notes on how to test your Weenix code:
- Use Weenix's built in Debug System
- Once you think you have finished VM try some of our Recommended Test Cases. Remember this is just a list of examples; you should test other things as well.
