Even though each 1541 had its own on board disk controller and disk operating system, it was not possible for a user to command two 1541 drives to copy a disk ( one drive reading and the other writing ) as with older dual drives like the 4040 and 8050 that were often found with the PET computer, and which the 1541 was backward compatible to ( it could read 4040 disks but not write to them since its internal Operating System was essentially the same ).

Though typically accessed by a DBMS through the underlying Operating system ( and often utilizing the operating systems ' File systems as intermediates for storage layout ), storage properties and configuration setting are extremely important for the efficient operation of the DBMS, and thus are closely maintained by database administrators.

Disk Operating System ( specifically ) and disk operating system ( generically ), most often abbreviated as DOS, refer to an operating system software used in most computers that provides the abstraction and management of secondary storage devices and the information on them ( e. g., file systems for organizing files of all sorts ).

Mature versions of the Commodore, SWTPC, Atari and Apple home computer systems all featured a disk operating system ( actually called ' DOS ' in the case of the Commodore 64 ( CBM DOS ), Atari 800 ( Atari DOS ), and Apple II machines ( Apple DOS )), as did ( at the other end of the hardware spectrum, and much earlier ) IBM's System / 360, 370 and ( later ) 390 series of mainframes ( e. g., DOS / 360: Disk Operating System / 360 and DOS / VSE: Disk Operating System / Virtual Storage Extended ).

* Operating system, a software that manages the hardware and software of a computer

Operating system advocacy is the practice of attempting to increase the awareness and improve the perception of a computer operating system.

Operating system advocacy can vary widely in tone and form, from published comparisons to heated debates on mailing lists and other forums.

Operating system advocacy can be compared to advocacy in other fields, particularly browser and editor wars, but also advocacy of programming languages and video game consoles.

The Business Operating System ( BOS ) was a cross-platform operating system designed to run p-code programs exclusively.

Operating systems with " legacy support " can detect and use legacy hardware.

* Operating System should support distributed environment.

Operating from Paducah, Kentucky, he provided logistical support for the operations of Brig.

These machines ran some form of DOS ( Disk Operating System ) and their BIOS provided very poor support for serial communications — so poor that it fell far short of the needs of any non-trivial communications task.

Operating systems that use the X Window System for graphics use ICC profiles, and support for color management on Linux, still less mature than on other platforms, is coordinated through OpenICC at freedesktop. org and makes use of LittleCMS.

Operating systems that don't support MRW natively ( notably Windows XP and prior versions ) need third-party software to read and write MRW-formatted discs, and these tend to be the same packet writing utilities which allow native UDF filesystems to be written to optical media.

* Main Operating Base, an overseas, permanently manned, well protected base, used to support permanently deployed forces, and with robust sea and / or air access

* Forward Operating Base, any secured forward position that is used to support tactical operations

Operating today through a private contractor ( ORNGE ), the system operates 33 aircraft stationed at 26 bases across the province, performing both interfacility transfers and on-scene responses in support of ground-based EMS.

* Rail Settlement Plan, provider of revenue allocation and support services to Britain's Train Operating Companies

Trusted Operating System ( TOS ) generally refers to an operating system that provides sufficient support for multilevel security and evidence of correctness to meet a particular set of government requirements.

TOS / 360 ( Tape Operating System / 360 ) was an IBM operating system for the System / 360, used in the early days around 1965 to support the IBM 360 model 30 and similar platforms.

Even Microsoft MVPs, important part of Microsoft community ecosystem, complained about the lack of support for other Visual Studio versions and Operating Systems.

The squad signaller sent messages through to the main Forward Operating Base, to request air support and medical evacuation for the men in the gun emplacement.

Operating systems that are known to support IPFilter include the following:

Operating as both long range artillery support and anti-air support, this bug can intervene into any battle within range.

Although there was native support for many popular games which used middleware sound libraries like HMI Sound Operating System, the Miles Audio Interface Libraries ( AIL ), the Miles Sound System and others, the user had to patch the games by replacing the existing sound drivers with the UltraSound versions provided on the installation CD.

As of January, 2006, OIF V-VII, the 3rd Battalion – 16th Field Artillery Regiment was deployed to Forward Operating Base Duke, located in Najaf, Iraq, as well as Forward Operating Base Kalsu and FOB Falcon in Southern Baghdad in support of Operation Iraqi Freedom.

Classic Mac Operating Systems are similar to DOS variants and DOS-based Windows: they do not support permissions, but only a " Protected " file attribute.

FOBs are traditionally supported by Main Operating Bases that are required to provide backup support to them.

Operating under Naval Special Warfare Group One, Det One executed direct action, coalition support, and battlefield-shaping operations.

Operating with logistical support provided by an Admin troop equipped with " 4 tonners " and Land Rovers, the Unit, also had an element of REME LAD ( Light Aid Detachment ) who were equipped with first a Scammel then Foden recovery vehicle, then a Spartan ( which ought to have been a Samson ) CVRT recovery vehicle.

Operating systems that support the proc filesystem include, but are not limited to:
