Executing binary files

[mySilence]

Umm.. A little question for all of you..
How can I load a program into a memory and execute it?
In NASM.
I have some code for it but it keeps messing up my print functions..

May be this code will help you

I meant that how could kernel execute an another binary file from the disk.
So the OS would work like this:
BOOT -------> KERNEL.BIN <-------> PROG.BIN

If that made any sense..

you need to write
1. floppy/hard disk driver
2. File system
3. file loader
use driver to pass sectors requested from the file system. The file system takes a file path name, parses it, finds the entry for the file name and the needed sectors, allocates memory for the file, requests the sectors to be read from the driver (floppy/hard disk). Once sectors are loaded, jump to the address where the file is loaded (or start a new process with the mem address)
This is a ROUGH summary but should give you the needed ideas

that depend on what mode ur kernel is using (real/protected) and it u r using pmode, what, memory management policy r u using

so give us more information to allow us help u
