Bootloader tutorial

Post by Just »

I'm a beginner in OS development and I'm having some problems to write my own bootloader. Where can I find a good tutorial or doc? I've found some, but they weren't well commented.

TIA

I wrote a tutorial a few years back (like... 6...) which might be useful.  There isn't much in the way of "tutorial" bits :) however, there is commented source code to my original nasm bootloader which might be of importance.
