Nachos Code Distributions
The Java version of Nachos is available for you to download here: nachos-java-fa02.tar.gz
(112 Kb gzipped tarfile). You can unpack this file using the command
gzcat nachos-java-fa02.tar.gz | tar xf -
which will create the directory nachos.
See the file README contained within the tarfile for
information on using and compiling the code.
Each project group should download this code just once
and place it under CVS control for the group to use.
We will be setting up UNIX groups and CVS repositories for each
group soon; in the meantime, you should be reading through the
code and trying to understand how it works.
Project Components
There are four projects. Each project has three components:
- A design document. You will meet with your TA to discuss your design about
10 days before phases 1 and 3 of Nachos.
- Project code.
- Project group member evaluations.
