It may be possible to use discutils for filesystems. It can read off of a rawPhysical disk stream. All that waoul be needed was loading the stream.

Original text:

I would like to make plugs for cosmos. I made a functional dos os in assembly code only. But i want to use some of the code in my old os and port it to cosmos maybe in the form of plugs or drivers.
Could you please show me an example of how to that.

One more thing, does all the VFSManger functions work?

Only in a very limited fashion. Dir listing, and reading file contents.

I'm not using Milestone 5. I'm using Milestone 4. So does Filesystems Work on Milestone 4?

You can look in the docs project for some minimal docs on plugs. I'm working on a full article, but I won't do that until we make the next set of changes to the plug system. Until then, read the plugs section that exists and then join the IRC channel and you can chat about plugs there.

Filesystems are disabled in the new kernel. We are rebuilding ATA now and then will move to file systems.
