I had the same problem with ReactOS and darwin mehulved

 

[mehulved]

And ReactOS is a dead project I presume. Atleast it was when I last saw.

^ Don't know much about them but looks like they are alive again. Especially when we consider that they made a stable release just last month and a news letter on 1st May talking about Roadmap to their next release. I had also read somewhere (on Wikipedia maybe?) that they were dead sometime back.

Why would anyone try Solaris 8 now? With Opensolaris 10 freely available. I have tried FreeBSD and it's variants, ReactOS and darwin. Well couldn't even get darwin to install cos of a couple of problems. ReactOS never worked cos it didn't support USB mouse
FreeBSD is just great but haven't messed around with it much yet.

ReactOS 0.4 - alpha


USB keyboard and mouse support

Even people wont like to use Xandors and Ark linux.

ReactOS was never dead. They were just migrating to SVN from the CVS repository so releases were slowed. For more info you can visit the irc channel or subscribe to newsletter.

As for being linux like, Intel_Gigacore reactos is not even linux like, the only similarity is both are FOSS. ReactOS is almost Windows, not Linux.

 

[mehulved]

I don't think any of them are like linux. Most are *nix like and a couple others like ReactOS(windows), FreeDOS(DOS) and quite different.

Has anyone tried Hurd ?
The best thing about it is that it is a GNU kernel.. I wanna try that
No GNU/Linux rather complete GNU OS

 

[freebird]

Hurd must evolve more.btwn Debian GNU/Hurd is available.check their site @ *debian.org also the hardware support is very minimal

You should have added the source :- *www.freeos.com/download.php

This is not your own complied list. Least you can do is add the source in your thread.

 

[mehulved]

Or you can simply point to distrowatch it lists all these and more along with their home page reviews and more.
