Z8Griz 1f750d9237 Most modern network cards and routers uses standard frame. 
Lowered the frame size because if network card / router can't handle high frame,
it will causes fragmentation, leading to packetloss or lost connection.
It depends on the network card and router.
A standard frame is 1518 bytes on the wire (as far as any capturing device is concerned).
A tagged frame (single tag) is 1522 bytes on the wire.
These take up 1538 bytes or 1542 bytes of transmission space on the wire.
On most OS, it is usually set at 1542. As a safe measure.
If one wants run on 90s network card, it should be set at 1518.
I think this should be automated, not hardcoded.

ZealOS

Discord Build ZealOS ISOs

The Zeal Operating System is a modernized fork of the 64-bit Temple Operating System. Guiding principles of development include transparency, full user control, and adherence to public-domain/open-source implementations.

ZealOS strives to be simple, documented, and require as little of a knowledge gap as possible. One person should be able to comprehend the entire system in at least a semi-detailed way within a few days of study.

Simplify, don't complicate; make accessible, don't obfuscate.

Features in development include:

Changes include:

  • 60 FPS
  • VBE graphics with variable resolutions
  • Reformatted code for readability
  • Added comments and documentation
  • HolyC -> ZealC
  • System-wide renaming for clarity

Getting started

Prerequisites

  • For running in a VM: Intel VT-x/AMD-V acceleration enabled in your BIOS settings. (Required to virtualize any 64-bit operating system properly.)
  • Working knowledge of the C programming language.

To create a Distro ISO, run the build-iso script. Check the Wiki guide for details on building an ISO. After creating an ISO, see the Wiki guides on installing in VirtualBox, VMWare, and bare-metal.

Contributing

There are two ways to contribute. The first way involves everything happening inside the OS, as intended by Terry. After you've built the latest ISO, installed to a VM, made your changes, and powered off the VM, you can run the sync script to merge your changes to the repo.

Alternatively, you can edit repo files using an external editor, outside of the OS.

Afterwards, you can make a pull request on the master branch.

Background

In around November of 2019, VoidNV forked ZenithOS from TempleOS. Releases of pre-git ZenithOS are currently archived on the mega.nz website. The repository was removed in August of 2020, and reuploaded to ZenithOS. The latest archived front page, master.zip, and related links can be found on archive.org.

In July of 2021, ZealOS was forked from ZenithOS.
