Augustin Cavalier 69a9cd36e6 kernel/fs: Free file descriptors via put_fd(), not free(). FDs are now object_cached, so this triggered an assert-failure panic trying to put them through the regular allocator. Just use put_fd to free these instead, so that there is only one "destruction" path for FDs. Fixes #15213.		2019-07-30 23:42:20 -04:00

Haiku

Homepage | Mailing Lists | IRC Channels | Issue Tracker | API docs

Haiku is an open-source operating system that specifically targets personal computing. Inspired by the BeOS, Haiku is fast, simple to use, easy to learn and yet very powerful.

Goals

Sensible defaults with minimal configuration required.
Clean, clear, concise code.
Unified desktop environment.

Trying Haiku

Haiku provides pre-built nightly images and release images. Haiku is compatible with a large variety of hardware, but in case you don't want to "take the plunge" and install Haiku on bare metal, you can install it on a virtual machine (VM) instead. If you've never used a VM before, you can follow one of the "Emulating Haiku" guides.

Compiling Haiku

See ReadMe.Compiling.
