InfiniteOS is an open source operating system for the Mac, released under the GPL. You don't need to install anything as it uses standard HFS and has a own Bootloader running under MacOS.Currently it has no GUI, only a Command Promt.

Also InfiniteOS is limited in the commands it can do. Here is a list of the commands InfiniteOS can preform:


  • reboot - Restarts the computer
  • shutdown - Turns the compuer off
  • snap - Unknown, possibly takes a screenshot(?)
  • beep - Plays a beep sound
  • testalign - Tests the alignement handler
  • cls - Clears the screen
  • time - Shows the current time
  • read [file name] - Types the contents of a text file to your screen
  • create [file/folder] - Creates a text file or folder on a floppy
  • draw [num 1, num 2, num 3, num 4] - Draws a line at the specified location
  • cd [play/stop] - Plays an Audio CD
  • hd0 [open/dir/dump] - Hard disk stuff
  • floppy [eject/dump/exec/dir/format] - Floppy stuff
  • help - Displays the text you are reading


  The way the command "floppy dir" works is like this. If you type in just "floppy dir" you get the root directory of the floppy. If you type in "floppy dir <path>", where <path> is the path to somewhere other than the root, that folder's directory is displayed.
(ex: floppy dir myfolder, or floppy dir myfolder:ios)

  Currently there are no known apps for InfiniteOS (but some are hopefully on the way). There is a simple SDK included with these files if you want to start on an app. As the OS changes so will the SDK. Look for future versions of the sources, and the SDK soon on the web and hotline.
