Welcome to the Carleton University COMP 3000: Operating Systems (Fall 2007) wiki.
 
==Course Outline==
 
The course outline can be found [http://www.scs.carleton.ca/%7Ecourses/course_outline.php?number=COMP%203000A&term=Fall&year=2007 here].  A backup copy is [http://www.scs.carleton.ca/~soma/os-2007f/course_outline_printable.php.html here].
 
==Running Linux at Home==
 
To give you an opportunity to become more familiar with Linux and UNIX, consider running a Linux distribution on your own machine if you can.  I suggest looking at [http://www.ubuntu.com Ubuntu] or [http://www.debian.org Debian] (the distribution used in the lab).
 
If you don't want to dual boot from Windows/MacOS X or you just don't want to worry about repartitioning, you can run Linux in a virtual machine.
See [[Running Linux in a Virtual Machine]] for more information.
 
==Proposal Meetings==
 
Feedback on draft proposals will be given though in-person meetings with Prof. Somayaji.  Please add yourself to the [[Proposal Meeting Schedule]] page.

If you don't want to dual boot from Windows/MacOS X or you just don't want to worry about repartitioning, you can run Linux in a virtual machine. See Running Linux in a Virtual Machine for more information.
