 The blue "Visit
Our BBS" graphic is the link to the old MMURTL BBS. It is no longer active, but some of the old comments are still useful. As you may know, the
source code to MMURTL itself if in the public domain. I did this to
allow you to do anything you desire with it. Even build the "Son of
MMURTL" - or daughter of MMURTL - that's OK, too. The rights
to the book are mine and no longer belong to the original (or any) publisher. You are
welcome to a free copy (on me) and you may also post whole copies where
you like (when needed) and give them away. Please don't post sections of
the book with providing a reference back to the book itself
(here) mainly because I hate finding things where the source is not identified or available. That is all I ask of you (and it isn't much).
Use it all in good heath and most of all, enjoy yourself. And don't
forget to spend time with your family! It is important that you do.(or at least communicate if away
from them).

CLICK HERE TO DOWNLOAD THE ENTIRE SOURCE PACKAGE (mmsource.zip - 987KB) CLICK HERE to download new memory code (3 files zipped up) that up the memory checking to 4GB (4GBPatch.zip - 26KB) CLICK HERE to get the Floating Point library by A.J. Monroe CLICK HERE to get some untested bug fixes sent in by AJ Monroe (AJMFixes1.zip) - Thanks AJ! The Floating Point package was written and submitted by "ajm" (A. J. Monroe) - and it is some Excellent clean code, too! Nice job, AJ! Thanks. The fix to the EIDE driver is now in the main source ZIP file. It is still limited to small drives or a 1 GB partition as the very first one on a larger drive (under 32 gigs). Someone told me they were trying to add a FAT32 file system, but no word yet. We shall see. I started one about 4 years ago, but have not gotten back to it yet. This "making a living" thing keeps getting in my way... Questions? Try looking through the BBS, but as a last resort, you can email me. Keep in mind that I am fairly busy working for a living (authors do NOT make any money... trust me on that one). So if you have a question, try to do your "homework" first. Thanks again and enjoy it! Richard@IPDataCorp.com HISTORICAL DATA - Prior Printed Versions

MMURTL-V1.0
- was originally published by SAMS Computer Books (a division of
MacMillan Publishing) and it is a "How someone did it" book. It is not, and never was intended as a college text.
The original publisher touted it as a "How To" book, and quite frankly,
there is enough information in it to allow a competent programmer
familiar with C and Assembler to build their own OS by choosing a
platform, a tasking model, a memory model, and an execution plan and "just do
it!" I know of one company that now uses a "little MMURTL" in an
embedded system, and I know several people that still work on their own
MMURTL incarnations. Most of the text discusses the code the beginning
of the project and then goes into the code in some detail.
