Does anybody know if there is some kind of standardized library that gives support for low-level routines like I/O-ports and segmentation that could be used on several platforms??

The closest thing I know of is the OS Kit listed in the like section. But I think that takes all the fun out of writing an OS :)

It could be practical with some kind of standard API for architecture low-level functions. It would make it easier to develop a portable OS, just to develop a new library that supports the API. If there is none I have to design one myself. Maybe Linux code could be useful.
