Centauri OS

This repository contains most of the code for Centauri OS. Centauri can run on two different platform types, dedicated and shared. The dedicated platform means it is the only code running on a machine, so the full OS is installed. The shared platform means there is another OS running and Centauri is just loaded as a single application.
