Spinix is an operating system that provides a linux-like look and feel to a propeller based board with an SD card. It takes advantage of the relocatable nature of Spin programs to run multiple programs at the same time. Each program runs on a dedicated propeller cog. You can install Spinix by writing the boot.binary file to the EEPROM and copying the files in the root directory to an SD card. When Spinix boots up for the first time it will request the four pin numbers of the pins that interface to the SD card. For a C3 card, use the pin numbers 10, 11, 9 and 25. Spinix can be rebuilt by running the build_spinix script. It uses BSTC to build Spin programs. The subdirectories in the file system contain the following programs: bin - Spinix utilities demos - C and Spin demo programs devel - Sample Spin code that can be built under spinix manpages - Documentation files displayed by man tmp - Temporary file storage scripts - Sample shell script files
