Since I don't grok assembler (my private shame), I don't know how much help I'll be at the low-level system stage. I'm quite interested in working on userland stuff, and will gladly do any kernel mucking that I can handle. (And if someone wants to give me a crash assembly course, well... =) ) I understand that we're looking to get a source repository out on the 'net, which would be a good start. What are people planning to start with first? (I suppose talking to disks is a priority... =) ) Mike -- #> Mike Shaver (shaver@ingenia.com) Ingenia Communications Corporation #> Chief System Architect -- Head geek -- System exorcist #> #> "Have you considered a life?
