I don't think that will be easy to use with the way I'm setting it up. I'm developing my own EFI boot loader. Based on philosophies of the OS/2 boot loader, and will have the same character interface as the base OS. So all I have to do is load part of the kernel that has the COW interface in it. Result? Less code to maintain :)

Nice! I can't wait to get my Tukzilla box (I can then test my OS)! I will post a video of my OS I'm developing for the Itanium platform. At the moment, no GUI (well, text-based GUI).

Oh no I actually drank to much chocolate milk and felt sick while watching your video. Nothing to do with the video at all, I'm just random =D

Stalin. How would you compare this OS with Vista? Is it smoother? Faster? I have an Ubuntu 8.04 LTS Desktop Edition (64-Bit) CD, but only 1 hard drive that has Vista on it.

difficult. i would say Vista is easier to use, but Ubuntu has more effects.
