Nachos Code Distributions

The Java version of Nachos is available for you to download here: nachos-java.tar.gz (109 Kb gzipped tarfile). You can unpack this file using the command 

  zcat nachos-java.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.

Important update (26 Feb '01): The nachos code has been updated with two small bugfixes that you need to apply. Either download the new Nachos code above, or use this patch file.

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:
  1. A design document. A few days after a design document is due, you will meet with your TA to discuss your design.
  2. Project code.
  3. Project group member evaluations.
