Vinix, a new OS/kernel, now runs the unchanged iOS version of PPSSPP and plays the God of War PSP demo.

A PSP game inside an iOS app on an operating system written from scratch.

Still experimental: software rendering, sound disabled.

Here's Vinix running on an Intel Atom n450 netbook with a Windows XP theme.

It runs well, RAM usage is small, no lags.

Vinix's ISO size has gone down from 1 GB to just 100 MB!

This was achieved by removing Firefox, X11, debug info, and many other packages that can be easily installed.

An yes, Vinix doesn't need X11 to run, it has its own WS.
