== Article Focus ==

Should there be articles about specific devices (that seems like repeating wikipedia) or should the articles be focused on
how the devices are related to designing an OS. Instead of having an article about what some device is, have it be about
writing drivers for it, how the device operates and what the OS needs to do to communicate with it. <br />

What belongs on this page? maybe links to each section i.e. beginner intermediate? or by topic?


Well I see the wiki mostly becoming an online book so I'd think maybe:

  • A purpose statement of some time (what is osdev?)
  • A link for people to learn about wikis and a link for new editors to our own editor help and guidline page
  • A table of contents, so I guess by topic.

Article Focus

Should there be articles about specific devices (that seems like repeating wikipedia) or should the articles be focused on how the devices are related to designing an OS. Instead of having an article about what some device is, have it be about writing drivers for it, how the device operates and what the OS needs to do to communicate with it.
