Discobsd is an experimental UNIX-like operating system derived from 4.4BSD-Lite2, focused on simplicity, transparency, and education. It strips away non-essential features and complexity to present a cleaner codebase suitable for study and hacking. Discobsd preserves the classic UNIX environment while allowing room for modern experimentation, such as porting to alternative platforms or introducing new subsystems. It is valuable for those interested in historical BSD systems, teaching OS design, or creating minimal POSIX environments.
Features
- Based on 4.4BSD-Lite2 with reduced complexity
- Fully open-source with clean, hackable codebase
- Traditional BSD-style userland and toolchain
- Lightweight design for ease of porting and experimentation
- POSIX-compatible shell and system interfaces
- Bootable on x86 and other legacy platforms
