Hello, I am recoding OSROS.
So if you have any suggestions that you want in the rebuilt version just tell me.
Also stuff you want in.
I plan to make it easier to add features, and make the OS more, jailbroken. At the moment, it's an OS for a blonde, and it's jailed since it only allows you to do what I coded it to.

Old Snorrful Revolution Rebuilt is on its way!
What to expect:
-snellTerminal (terminal, shell)
-No user system
-More user friendly
-Clean code
-Less jailed
-Boot manager (choose what to boot; CraftOS, OSROS or any other)
-Desktop icons
-File manager
Have any suggestions that I could add?

EDIT - Made it look a lot more neater

To be honest; I've ran out of ideas to put into my OS - I mean; I need something to work on - Currently I have a version to be released but I want some more features to it so I don't keep rolling out too many updates.
Could someone give me a few suggestions on what to change or what to add? Thanks in advance.

I downloaded it for the first time yesterday, and the biggest problems I found were:
  • The install program thing didn't work
  • There's nothing to do, I had seen everything after about a minute
  • The safemode it completely pointless
  • Many more things I can't be bothered adding
Really, my number one suggestion is to take care in your work. 90% of the OSs on this forum are release far to early, when I make a program or OS I put as much detail and effort in to it as possible. As a result they are littered with bugs and crashes and can't do anything. So that my piece of advice, think about Apple products. The reason people love them so much is due to the huge amount of work and care they put in the products.

Alright - I don't know whats wrong with your installer - I just installed it from Pastebin fine.

There is nothing to do in that version - Since I completely rebuilt the OS from scratch; I thought I'd better release it and add more stuff later in an update.

The safemode isn't really completely pointless - I do believe I can code a little virus to shutdown the computer upon the load of desktop.ossf. It also scans to see if you are missing a system file; if so; it will attempt reinstall (to be released later)

Many more things like? It's open source (everything in CC is) so you can do what you want to improve it. To others; please don't take it and change all the names and looks then claim it as your own work.


Thank you for the tip on thinking about Apple products.

Sorry by installer I meant the in OS pastebin downloader, It doesn't seem to work.

I don't really know, but take a look at other OSs and make a few things/programs they have.

Okay - I'm making a todo-list now because I've fixed the programs installer bug (recoded it to be exact - now you can either install via Pastebin or Github) and the uninstall bug.
I'm also working on making different color settings but it takes a lot of time and I have to make it recode the config file each color change. So that you can expect in the next two updates.

Thank you.

Anybody got any suggestions to add or anything to change?

Hi guys - I decided to stop developing Old Snorrful OS since the name isn't so attracting and the style has been a little dead.
If you don't want me to do this say so.

The OS I'm going to start on will work the same way as Old Snorrful.
It will not look the same - BUT some features will be brought over to the new one. I am still deciding a name for it. (Update: Name is LinearOS)
PM me if you want to help development for the new OS.

Why don't you make it windowed? Like LyqydOS / PearOS?

Windows really aren't the future in CC. The screens just too small.

Why make windows + tabs, sort of like how you can create multiple Chrome windows and each one has its own tabs. That way, you can have the features of tabs and windows in one.

I have started developing a new OS which is a mushup of the two past versions of this OS (Legacy and Revolution) but coded better and more efficient, it's not that cheesy and is going to be better overall. -You can find the new OS here.
