Re: Memory managment - how to?
My OS manages memory by keeping a linked list of all the free blocks of memory.
If you want the code give me a buzz ([email protected])
However I don't know if my code is the best, since my OS has a bug where if the kernel is bigger than 22k it refuses to boot (but it hangs before this code is initialised so the source of this bug beats me lol)

You can also try http://www.mega-tokyo.com/osfaq2/index.php. I found this site very helpful in my early stages.
