mOS is an Open Computers operating system designed for computers with limited specifications. It provides a lightweight and efficient environment for running programs on Tier 2 GPU/Screen configurations with a minimum of 640K RAM and a 640KB Disk (Floppy or HDD).
mOS is specifically designed to run on Open Computers hardware, targeting Tier 2 GPU/Screen configurations. It is optimized for systems with the following specifications:
- GPU/Screen: Tier 2
- RAM: Minimum 640K, recommended 1024K
- Disk: 640KB (Floppy or HDD)
These specifications have been deemed the requirement based on real hardware tests (on a local minecraft server, running on the E2E modpack)
