Please explain what is "rest of the software stack"?

admin — Wed, 30 Jun 2010 22:40:41 +0000

Android relies on Linux version 2.6 for core system services such as security, memory management, process management, network stack, and driver model. The kernel also acts as an abstraction layer between the hardware and the rest of the software stack.

"codecs, functions for the presentation of rich graphics on a small displays, secure shell support for encrypted TCP/IP traffic into the cloud, component support for Web browsing , SQL database functionality , and standard C library functionality ."

how to make installable operating system from a source code of kernel and other drivers?

admin — Tue, 29 Jun 2010 04:56:34 +0000

I am having a source code of an operating system ( with all kernel files and drivers and other software codes)
I want make its installable version by installing it through cd
by making installation cd
Please reply me
Its very urgent

Do it – the way all OS’s do it.

Create a bootable cd or dvd – with a minimum OS – capable of copying the files into place… and creating a "bootstrap" on the hard drive.

If you’re going to be doing HARDWARE INDEPENDENT drivers – you’re going to have to come up with some process like microsoft’s "HAL.EXE" – where you interrogate the devices and supply the MINI-DRIVERS for them.

As a person who has actually participated in a team which built OS’s – It’s a LOT MORE COMPLICATED than it may seem on the surface.

However… break the task into SMALL BITES – and deal with them one by one… until they’re all done.

Good luck.

On Kapersky Internet Security software… HELP (KERNEL MODE MEMORY PATCH)?

admin — Sat, 26 Jun 2010 02:16:17 +0000

I recently got Kapersky Internet Security software, and it has never actively informed me of their being any problems, but just out of curiousity I opened the software and it said that there had been 2 threats, "Kernel Patch Memory Mode". i looked this up, and no one said it was anything too bad so I just ignored it.

Today when I opened the software to update it, the number of "riskware"s had gone up to four, and apparently this had occured as soon as I turned my laptop on. What is this? Is it dangerous, or does the fact that it hadn’t alerted me about these "riskwares" mean that it has already dealt with them?

help please someone, I don’t really understand what a "kernel mode memory patch" is, after researching it.

During the application installation you can select the protection mode. Two modes are available
which are Automatic and interactive…. did you choose interactive as most choose automatic which
means KIS deal with everything in the recommended manner.

This can be changed if required….which lets KIS decide what to do when an event happens.

http://support.kaspersky.com/kis2010/tech?qid=208280386

I have started with the above as in the link below it says …….If the interactive mode is enabled in the Kaspersky Internet Security 2010 settings and in the Proactive Defense component settings the Prompt for action option is selected (the option is available only in versions from 9.0.0.736), then in some cases the Kaspersky Internet Security 2010 dialog window that will inform you about suspicious activity may appear. The process will be detected as Process (PID: 0): kernel mode memory patch………….and it goes on to say the following……

Keyloggers may send your personal information (logins, passwords, credit card numbers) you enter using your keyboard to a cyber criminal. HOWEVER, similar actions can be performed not only by malicious programs, but also by some other not malicious applications installed on your computer. Very often these actions are performed by means of hotkeys to access some functions of an application installed on your computer.

The process kernel mode memory patch (PID: 0) is not malicious. You can add this process to the exclusions list by clicking Add to exclusions and How to do that can be seen in the link below.

This appears nothing to worry about ….Just KIS being Pedantic.

What you find under detected threats is not as important as what is under ACTIVE THREATS.

Is there Windows boot software that can boot a linux kernel?

admin — Wed, 30 Dec 2009 10:00:47 +0000

I want something like GRUB for linux but I am wondering if there is any windows software that I can use to boot windows and linux?

One more vote for Wubi. Dyne:bolic claims to be able to be run from inside Windows but I’ve never been able (or frankly interested) in running it from anything but a CD. Debian has a similar installer at http://www.goodbye-microsoft.com and OpenSuse has instalinux, but I really don’t recommend them.

Microsoft really doesn’t want you to run anything but Windows. They are not going to release a boot loader which accommodates other OSes. Linux can do it because it has such a radically different model of what a computer is. I wouldn’t look to Microsoft for a boot loader. Your choices are grub lilo and running Linux on top of Windows.
