Menuetos Operating System

Menuet is a multitasking real-time operating system that fits on a single 1.44-MB floppy.

From their site:

Menuet is a fully 32 bit assembly written, graphical RealTimeOperatingSystem for assembly programming & distributed under General Public License.

• pre-emptive multitasking, multithreading, ipc
• graphical UI with 16 M colours up to 1280x1024
• ide: editor/compiler for applications and kernel
• kernel and application sources included (GPL)
• ethernet: tcp/udp/icmp/ip
• http/mp3 servers, 3D maze
• free-form, skinnable application windows
• hard real-time data fetch
• fits in a single floppy

Since Menuet fits to a single floppy, you only need one blank 1.44 M diskette. Your hard disks are not affected in any way.

From AssemblyLanguage:

• A statement of particular interest (and the reason I make mention of this project here) in the FAQ is "32bit asm is generally almost as easy to program as C or Pascal."
