Probably not. You'll need to have a more specific idea of what kind of OS you want to develop before you can expect a walk-through. x86/x86-64/arm/something else? Single-tasking/multitasking? Single-user/multi-user? Uniprocessor/SMP/NUMA? Target audience? Intended use-cases? Current level of experience?

The wiki has a wealth of information - I'd recommend reading all of the articles under "Basic Information", which culminates with a link to tutorials (which only make sense once you have an idea of where you're going).

I want to create an x86 system in C++ it should be able to boot and get upto the point of a user land shell.

There's enough information on this Wiki to allow you to do that. Have a look at the Bare Bones tutorials.
