==Operating System Programming Tools==
----
I suggest we insure that everything in this section is in [[:Category:Tools]], and then remove the section. Anyone else have an opinion? -[[User:Jhawthorn|Jhawthorn]] 12:54, 26 June 2007 (CDT)


==Invalid/Missing Links==
:Yes, I agree. The tool listing does not belong in the Resources page. - [[User:Combuster|Combuster]] 16:57, 26 June 2007 (CDT)

As discussed in [[Talk:Quick Links]], there are many pages with links to useful sites, and it would be useful to merge them into one page, here. Many of those are part of Category:Pages For Review.


The pages that are proposed for the merge are:
== Image tools ==
* [[Resources]]
I'd like to see some more disk-image tools. The only one I know of that supports floppy disks is WinImage.
* [[Quick Links]]

:Have you checked [[:Category:Disk Image Utilities]]? -[[User:Jhawthorn|Jhawthorn]] 00:06, 25 June 2007 (CDT)
* [[OSRC]]
* [[Specifications]]
* [[Links]]


A proposed layout of sections (each with the appropriate links):
==Organization==
* Operating System General
Things to think about for organisation:
* Operating System Development
* Hardware Specifications
** Processors
** Motherboard Devices
** Human Input Devices
** Video
** Audio
** Network
** ...
* Software Specifications
* Other Specifications
* Sample Kernels


All comments are welcome (especially nods of approval :)
* Add pascal/ada/basic/whatever compilers?
* split compilers into realmode, pmode and longmode?
* Other architectures


- [[User:Combuster|Combuster]] 12:51, 10 July 2007 (CDT)
how about tagging each compiler with what architecture (subset) it supports


:No objections here. --Alboin

== Compiler Comparison ==



I think the compiler details like architecture supported should go in [[Tool_Comparison]]
I completed merging the pages listed above. All links in specifications appeared to be duplicates of quick links, I located [[Miscellaneous Code]] which might be viable for a merge as well.

Fixups or confirmations that these are unrecoverable might be welcome.
I invite people for a double-check and final comments before removing the original pages.

Deleted Quick links, kernels with source, osrc, specification and links. I have [[Talk:Resources/Merge Archive|archived]] their talkpages for future reference.

Merging link pages

As discussed in Talk:Quick Links, there are many pages with links to useful sites, and it would be useful to merge them into one page, here. Many of those are part of Category:Pages For Review.

The pages that are proposed for the merge are:

A proposed layout of sections (each with the appropriate links):

  • Operating System General
  • Operating System Development
  • Hardware Specifications
    • Processors
    • Motherboard Devices
    • Human Input Devices
    • Video
    • Audio
    • Network
    • ...
  • Software Specifications
  • Other Specifications
  • Sample Kernels

All comments are welcome (especially nods of approval :)
