The Penguin of Evil<p>Bizzare Unix semantics question. Given the parent of init is init (getppid(() of pid 1 is 1) is init the child of init, and if only init is running what is the correct return from wait(NULL);</p><p>Believe it or not I actually found a case it matters in my Fuzix init today and having read various docs I'm really not sure what the answer is. ECHILD or blocking ?</p><p><a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/unix" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>unix</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/fuzix" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>fuzix</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/retrocomputing" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>retrocomputing</span></a></p>
The Penguin of Evil<p>Fuzix C <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/compiler" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>compiler</span></a> now supports 6800 including floats.

DG Nova and Nova3 are passing the basic tests but still shaking out the odd word addressing bug so it's back to 6502 work and (as someone said it wasn't possible ;-) ) DDP516</p><p><a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/fuzix" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>fuzix</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/retrocomputing" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>retrocomputing</span></a></p>

With a few things fixed and some memory optimization work done I can build and almost play startrek built with the 8080 compiler built with the cross version of itself. This helps enormously because I can now start to diff the asm output of the two compiler builds and use it to hunt down remaining compiler bugs.</p><p>Interestingly the most memory demanding thing seems to be C pre-processing, and then linking, not the compile phases.</p>

It's impressive how powerful this OS is. Gary Kildall sure knew his craft!</p><p>Personally, I prefer the ZPM3 variant of CP/M which comes with the RomWBW firmware. I only use SCM on my "Classic II" build, the others run RomWBW for many reasons, including the ability to run / test <a href="https://oldbytes.space/tags/FUZIX" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>FUZIX</span></a>.</p>
Wintermute_BBS<p>Does anyone know how to prepare a bootable <a href="https://oldbytes.space/tags/FUZIX" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>FUZIX</span></a> image for rcbus-z180? I can compile the most recent sources and run "make diskimage". And indeed, the Kernel boots on my <a href="https://oldbytes.space/tags/RomWBW" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>RomWBW</span></a> setup ( <a href="https://oldbytes.space/tags/SC126" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>SC126</span></a> ). But there seems to be no filesystem on the SD card, although "make diskimage" reports to add it to the disk image.</p>
