I'm boot strapping an entire operating system with python.
Quoting: Anonymous Coward 79314116 That sounds fun. Is this a virtual machine OS? A simulator? What kind of functionality do you have so far? Quoting: Anonymous Coward 79387251 It is a tape loader. It loads post installed operating system tapes and decompresses them into an automatically formatted drive. The tapes include the extensible firmware interface, the main system, and a recovery system. The recovery system is there in case you need permissions references or just a way to boot into a system you can fix system killers like broken .profile or .bash_rc. After the system is loaded it runs a set of customizations including building Debian packages for the smooth running of the included applications also installed from the script. The system is tuned for content creators, for story telling in particular with over 40 applications from their most up to date sources. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 79314116 Interesting that you would choose to use tapes as a storage medium. I haven't used tapes since the 90's. Are tapes making a comeback these days? Or are they just fun to work with? Quoting: Anonymous Coward 79387251 Tape file format from tar. .tar.gz Not an afficianto of tapes per se but I do have fond memories of mix tapes. My system is a linux mix tape creator.
