I still have the QNX demo disk image (including GUI!) which fits on a floppy drive.

It's a shame there's no comparable open source OS :(




A word of caution: the first URL doesn't have TLS (HTTPS). None of the links to the demos have either. The links on Win World PC don't have any checksums.

I actually remember using this demo floppy though, back in those days (the other impressive Unix-like OS I used back then was BeOS). It was the first time I stumbled upon Towers of Hanoi. Sadly the main developer of QNX passed away.


I think the 32-bit MenuetOS still fits on a floppy (and is open source).


graphical os smaller than your average favicon
