[edit] Draft plan before the formal coding day

Here is my draft plan about what I should do in the full month before the coding day starts:

  1. Since I know the EXT fs better, so it's a good start to read the extlinux.asm code first.
  2. Then may be the FAT fs, reading relative documentations then read the ldlinux.asm
  3. Then the ISO9600 FS.
  4. And last , the PXE part.
  5. git ( mentioned by stefan )

And as stefan mentioned, I should be good at git. So learning git is also included in the above list.


[edit] The New Plan

Well, with the discussion with hpa and Stefan on IRC last night, I should start my project sooner with changing EXT file system to C code first.

  • then here is the draft plan about EXT fs conversion.
  1. Rewrite the LRU cache code then test it and debug it in the user space. (Done 2009-05-06)
  2. Implement the EXT file system interface (Under doing... 2009-05-07---2009-05-11)
  3. Since the above code are done in the user space, so the next is merge it into EXTLINUX code then test it. ( 2009-05-12----...)
