Linux 0.00
Linux 0.00 on Qemu.jpg
Linux 0.00 doing what id does best
Type: Multitasking
Creator: Linus Torvalds
Architecture: IBM 386
This Version: 2.6 (2010)
Date Released: 1991


Linux 0.00 was the first version that simply went into protected mode, started two tasks, and switched between the two printing "AAAA" & "BBBB".

"it switched between two processes that printed AAAA...  and BBBB...
respectively by using the timer-interrupt - Gods I was proud over that"

                                                    --Linus Torvalds

Getting this to run

So far the only place I've found with a binary is over at oldlinux.org. I was able to convert the boot image into something that Qemu understands and was able to run. Otherwise, it ought to run with an older version of Bochs.

You can download the floppy disk image here

Commented Source Code

Linux as this point only comprised two files. The following was taken from this forum post.

# Boot.s this code has been transferred to the memory 0 x10000, and in protected mode 
KRN_BASE = 0x10000 
# Boot.s we have learned about the structure of the Register, which is the index table at the gdt 
# Gdt a table of the table of eight bytes. Each user process of the two gdt table, and ldt tss 
Not # 1 
# The second is the code of the system 
# The third is the system of data 
# 3 is the memory of the system
