Hi,
I'm looking to write an custom operating system designed for one
purpose. It is going to be much like Google's operating system, which
is designed for hardware fault tolerance and distributing computing
power. I'm a developer but I've never had experience with writing or designing an operating system.
I wouldn't be the one actually writting it, so please don't post
saying I'm out of my league. I'm actually looking to know if anyone
(who is reading this)has written a custom operating system or has been involved in it. I'm wondering how long would it take to write
something like this? It would most likely be heavily based on linux.
For say 5 guys who have experience in linux and linux kernel
development, what kind of time would it take?
I'm not sure if it would be easier just to modify the linux kernel or actually just write a new one from scratch (I'm really don't know much
about this area).
I'm obviously not looking for an exact time estimate because it would
take too long to give all the details on what I'm trying to do, but I
am looking for a general time frame, like 5000 man hours? 20000?
100000?
Has anyone had experience working on anything like this?
