In my opinion the best choice for a programming environment if you want to reach the masses and get them coding would be Python and if the wxPython libraries came pre-loaded with the OS, fairly small redistributable programs could be easily passed around. There is the Boa Constructor IDE for wxPytho...

just out of curosity why would you want to do this? Just for a hypothetical example, say a group of Mac enthusiasts got together and bundled a bunch of apps, alt-shell and hacked Dll's etc with ROS. to create a distro that emulated the Mac OSX look and feel right out of the box and call it ROX...

The idea of using ROS for this purpose is what peaked my interest in the OS in the first place and, as I can see from the com...

OK, forgive me if this seems ignorant but why must the boot sector be written to at all? I mean, ROS uses a FAT32 file system right?
