(11/30/17) —Due to our progress being a bit behind, I've made a modification to the files part of Project 4. You do not need to use a File Allocation Table, just use the embedded link (nNextBlock) and a free space tracking structure at the end (Bitmap). This does not change anything for the first due date and if you already started the FAT implementation, that is fine.
(11/21/17) —Project 4 is assigned, with two due dates. Please see the assignment sheet for information. The assignment sheet and associated files can be found below.
(10/05/17) —Project 2 is assigned, due Sunday, October 22, 2017, by midnight. The assignment sheet and associated files can be found below.
(09/12/17) —Project 1 is assigned, due Sunday, October 1, 2017, by midnight. The assignment sheet and associated files can be found below.
(08/29/17) — Welcome to the Fall Term (2181)

Project 4: File System

Project 2: Syscalls
- We will be using a different version of Linux and QEMU (x86-based instead of ARM) for this project. The disk image and a copy of QEMU for windows is available by clicking here. For Mac users, you can download an older but GUI-based : Q.app. Point it at the tty.qcow2 disk image in the above zip.
- For Linux users and Mac users wanting to use the homebrew version, I have a test version of the disk image and a start.sh script to run it. It should be identical to the above version in terms of functionality, but actually boot with a recent version of QEMU. IF THE ORIGINAL WORKS FOR YOU, DON'T BOTHER WITH THIS ONE.
