Logo BITS-PyOS

BIOS-Implementation-Test-Suite-based Python Operating System

Be warned! This is a hodge-podge of BITS, SysLinux, and my own code.

This is an Operating System based on Intel's open-source BIOS Implementation Test Suite, or BITS. BITS is a bare metal Python interpreter made for testing hardware, firmware, etc. It uses SysLinux to boot, and run my own python code as the "UI".

Building BITS-PyOS to a USB Drive

Follow the instructions in the build2usb.md file.

Advantages of BITS-PyOS

  • Quick to boot most of the time (due to being bare-metal Python based).
  • Simple and easy to code for (due to running Python 2).
  • Etc.
