Frustrating, indeed
That point needs to be driven into the minds a little better then it has been, I think. There's a growing trend of "new to programming" people thinking that developing an OS would be a great first project. This is clearly not the case.
Even many experienced developers tend to take on more then they can handle when it comes to osdev. Modest, incremental, and maintainable steps are key, I think.
Anyway, mini-rant... good work, by the way. It's an awesome feeling completing a module or section or an OS, let alone almost completing the entire thing, eh?
Cheers,
Jeff
