That stream of errors told you exactly what the hardware problem with your floppy drive (not disk) was: It expected an ATAPI floppy drive (probably ribbon cable style internal, or drivers that id the one you're using as such) and you are using a USB floppy drive. In other words, the OS expected specific drivers, which were not provided, defaulted to a specific case, which you did not meet, then spat out that string of errors to let you know.

The biggest issues with Linux back in the 90s, at least for me, was: A) A lack of driver support both from the manufacturers and limited reverse engineered drivers from the community for many PC’s and PC components/accessories, meaning you really had to have just the right hardware or live with some components/features not working. B) Software installation was very difficult as there were no app repositories/app stores or a good software package mangers yet for Linux back then meaning you had to compile software from scratch often and deal with dependency hell in lots of cases. C) finally, there was so many types of software that just didn’t exist back then for Linux or only in crappy or very much beta versions of the software that barely worked. Thankfully, drivers support has greatly improved to such a degree that its much less common to find hardware that doesn’t work its Linux with at least basic support he. It was back i. The 90s and software repositories and software package managers have fixed the software installation nightmare along.

VWestlife, the last error shown is just generic, the real problem is at the top the USB EHCI handoff, bios did not release ownership... Some PCs have this same problem with booting macOS natively, which the clover bootloader patches it so the handoff happens correctly... In clover it's called 'USBFix'. Not sure if this OS can be adapted to use clover bootloader but if so that fix would solve it! ;)

This T61 has a Core 2 Duo T7300 at 2 GHz, a Quadro NVS 140M GPU and a 1440x900 display. It was a bit of a pain to get it working with modern Ubuntu because of video problems. I had to use a very specific version of Nvidia's proprietary driver and tweak a kernel boot flag to make the machine boot with a text console. But with all that done, it's a stable machine, though a bit slow by modern standards of course.

Just a wild guess, but based on some of the error messages above the last two lines, its indicating that your USB floppy drive 'isnt a standard floppy' , then it just craps out because it fails to initialize this USB floppy drive for the OS to finish loading. Then because of that, nothing else gets initialized either and so it all just crumbles down to the 'Initialization failed....' part and asks you to reboot.

Based on the information from this video, the creator of the OS is lying a bit about it being all independent. He boasts that it's its own thing, but it's not exactly. I mean it might not be Linux, but it contains a lot of the GNU utils (shown at 6:18 eg cat, cp, fdisk) that basically every Linux distribution contains (hence why a Linux distro can also be called GNU/Linux). So actually this system is part GNU.

Like I mentioned in the video, it uses a mixture of UNIX and MS-DOS command names so that most people can use it easily without needing to learn a whole bunch of new commands. cat and cp are UNIX commands, and fdisk was used in MS-DOS for over two decades before it existed in GNU.

It had a huge number of programs, too (mostly small games). Worth checking out.

The error screen for the floppy version tells you everything: Kernel UsbEHCI Driver handoff failed (eg. the kernel could probably not do the handoff from the bios into secure mode for usb) and then the kernel thought it could address the floppy using atapi (IDE) which obviously failed since USB is more like scsi and not atapi and actually uses the scsi command set. That's what I think is going wrong.

After using OS/2's object oriented desktop back in the day, I was rather curious about what Visopsys's functional desktop would be like. That seemed to be lost in translation, though.

It was rather curious to see you putting a file manager window and a File Open dialogue next to each other and trying to match their content.

This means no USB, no SATA, no modern gigabit network devices, no wifi, and modern sound card support. The jpg viewer does not resize the image or the window so not even usable as a digital picture view geez! I KNOW my digital picture frame is more usable than this OS and it has an embedded graphical OS that does sound(mp3,wav, and wma),graphics files(jpg,bmp,png),and text files. So why Visopsys is so limited? It is a hobbyist OS. Either way it is nice concept and small footprint. Reminds me of QNX but unlike QNX RTP, this does not have media or sound support so it gets a fail for now.

As I explained, Visopsys is its own design, not based on anything else.

Since you were using a USB Floppy drive i think that is the cause of the error. Bios boots from the drive, Launcher loads and starts, Launcher tries to detect devices, cannot detect Floppy drive (missing driver?) and cannot go on. Had similar problems in the past too (with Windows and Linux). The non functional USB mouse indicates that too.

At least it has more functions than an apple computer.

Seems to me that it would probably work with an internal floppy disk drive, but maybe not a usb one.

Not really. I speak from experience that many Windows 3.1 crashes caused the machine to lock up and require a reboot.

Just a wild guess. I think the reason it might not work on your T61 is that it's 64 bit hardware and maybe the 32 bit architecture of Visopsys is just not working perfectly on it. On your X60 it should work. Or any older 32 bit hardware.

It does work fine on my T61, just not the floppy disk version. And my X60 has a 64-bit processor as well (Core 2 Duo).

Yeah, saw the rest of the video now. Thanks by the way for doing this test for all of us. :] So far it looks really promising. Slightly different but not too different. Would love to see another test once it got a little further in development. Like maybe in a year from now, or so.

I like how there are alternatives to windows. Now im typing this on my dual boot desktop Pc. windows xp ( now) but vista is on the other HDD which I finally got updates working thanks to a youtube vid. vista runs fine its a little slow to start but Goes fast once everything was loaded. wonder what windows is planning for another os when windows10 crap is done.
