linux 生日 编译,Linux 15 周年生日

1991年的8月25日正是Linux的诞生日,Linux深远地改变了世界信息技术的运行格局,并一手促成了开放源代码软件的发展,Linus教王Torvalds Linus在发布Linux的当时说了些什么呢?我们来做一个回顾:

"Hello everybody out there using minix -

I'm doing a (free) operating system

(just a hobby, won't be big and professional like gnu) for 386(486) AT

clones. This has been brewing since April, and is starting to get

ready. I'd like any feedback on things people like/dislike in minix, as

my OS resembles it somewhat (same physical layout of the file-system

(due to practical reasons) among other things).

I've currently ported bash(1.08) and gcc(1.40), and things seem to

work. This implies that I'll get something practical within a few

months, and I'd like to know what features most people would want. Any

suggestions are welcome, but I won't promise I'll implement them :-)

PS. Yes - it's free of any minix code, and it has a multi-threaded fs. It is NOT portable (uses 386 task switching etc), and it probably never will support anything other than AT-harddisks, as that's all I have :-(."
