There are quite a few out there. I wrote an article for the Register about a decade back with 25 alternative OSes for x86 machines https://www.theregister.com/Print/2013/11/01/25_alternative_pc_operating_systems/ It mentions KolibriOS, and FreeDOS, and very slightly cheats with one mention of a Linux remix, but it is a long-dead one now. It doesn't even mention my current favourite, which is Oberon. http://ignorethecode.net/blog/2009/04/22/oberon/ There are a _lot_ of choices out there that are not as bloated as modern Linux tends to be, and not super-simple and limited like DOS (any DOS). -- Liam Proven – Profile: https://about.me/liamproven Email: lpro...@cix.co.uk – gMail/gTalk/gHangouts: lpro...@gmail.com Twitter/Facebook/LinkedIn/Flickr: lproven – Skype: liamproven UK: +44 7939-087884 – ČR (+ WhatsApp/Telegram/Signal): +420 702 829 053 _______________________________________________ Freedos-user mailing list Freedos-user@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/freedos-user
