Help Implimenting a MM and Multitasking?

Post by balthasar »

I got Paging working and enabled in my kernel http://code.google.com/p/odysseyos/

but i dont know what to do next to implement the MM and enable multitasks.

also noob question is it possible to make API for the kernel in static libraries and linking them to the kernel like Moduals?

If you have just got paging working in your kernel, I would probably start working on a heap manager next.

Of course. (I am personally trying to find a nice way of using them as dynamic modules...thats a different story though)
