Hey,
My friend and I are tring to modify the BrickOS memmory management for a
computer Science senior project. I am trying to help him out with it. We are
wondering if anyone can give us some information on how we can edit the source
code and then recompile it under the Cygwin enviornment. Does anyone know how we
should go about doing so?
We where under the impression that we could just change a file, then re- archive
it (into .tar format) and then we could re-build the new version of the
OS, but we are not sure how to do this. Any help would be great.
Thanks
