You may find what you are looking for in OS-9000 from Microware. OS-9000 is a complete multi-tasking real-time operating system for the 80386 and can run directly on most 386-based PC/AT machines (not 286). You can partition the hard disk between DOS and OS-9000 and selectively boot either. In addition, using the OS-9000 PCF file manager, you can access the DOS partition under OS-9000. A C compiler, Assembler, Linker and C-Source Debugger are included as standard. In addition, its modular nature allows custom drivers and other modules to be included easily, and even dynamically loaded at run-time. Full details are available from our Western Regional Office on (408)980-0201 or the Corporate HQ on (515)224-1929. Tony. -- Tony Mountifield. | Microware Systems (UK) Ltd.
