for disk I/O

Post by KodyKinzel »

I've been very confused about disk I/O.

Would one have to combine these tutorials to get working disk I/O, or am I going in the wrong direction:

http://wiki.osdev.org/PCI

http://wiki.osdev.org/ATA/ATAPI_using_DMA

Are these things even related?

I also tried the IDE tutorial a few times, but it seriously confused me each time

.... or probably you didn't spend much time figuring the stuffs.
Programming is not about using a language to solve a problem, it's about using logic to find a solution !
