MikeOS -- Open source 16-bit operating system for x86 PCs

Copyright (C) 2006 - 2019 MikeOS Developers -- see doc/LICENSE.TXT

==================================================================

MikeOS is a 16-bit real mode operating system for x86-compatible PCs, 

written entirely in assembly language, which boots from a floppy disk,

CD-ROM or USB key. It features a text-based dialog-driven user

interface, a command-line, support for FAT12 (MS-DOS-like) floppy

disks, sound (PC speaker), text editor, BASIC interpreter and more.

The kernel includes over 60 system calls.

MikeOS is a learning tool for those wishing to understand simple OS 

construction and x86 assembly. Quick getting-started guide: MikeOS can 

run from a floppy disk or CD-ROM, either on an emulator or a real PC. 

See the disk_images/ directory for files that you can write to the 

appropriate media or boot in, for instance, VMware, QEMU or VirtualBox.

You can find the source code in the source/ directory, and sample 

programs (included on the disk images) in the programs/ directory.

See the doc/ directory for more info, including:
