Linux a eu 17 ans hier !

Hé oui ma petite dame çà nous rajeunit pas !

Il y a 17 ans , Linus Torvalds écrivait ce post sur Usenet, salon comp.os.minix :

Do you pine for the nice days of minix-1.1, when men were men and wrote their own device drivers? Are you without a nice project and just dying to cut your teeth on a OS you can try to modify for your needs? Are you finding it frustrating when everything works on minix? No more all-nighters to get a nifty program working? Then this post might be just for you :-)

As I mentioned a month(?) ago, I’m working on a free version of a minix-lookalike for AT-386 computers. It has finally reached the stage where it’s even usable (though may not be depending on what you want), and I am willing to put out the sources for wider distribution. It is just version 0.02 (+1 (very small) patch already), but I’ve successfully run bash/gcc/gnu-make/gnu-sed/compress etc under it.

Le 5 octobre 1991, devenait publique un petit projet de rien, une sorte de clone de minix ne fonctionnant que sous AT-386. Je me demande ce que c’est devenu ? Vous avez des echos ?
