Here's my development environment:
Mac Mini - my machine
PCLinuxOS - my OS
GCC - compiler
AS - assembler
LD - linker
GNU Make - makefiles
KDevelop - editor/ide
Bochs - x86 emulator
DD - make disk images
And don't forget:
Intel® 64 and IA-32 Architectures

Theres also a great link around somewhere about how to write good forum posts and get decent answers. "STARTING OFF??!?", all in caps, with no indication at all of what you've done or not done is not a good way.
Read the f**king manual, search the f**king web, and come back when you've grown a pair.

Do you know how to program?anthony_pacitto3 wrote:yes, i am wondering what are ALL the tools, software, computers, etc. i should get inorder to start writing my OS??
If not, then first learn a programming language, such as C or C++--Both are common in OS development.
With this, learn x86 assembly--you will need it:
C++
Art of Assembly
If you DO know programming (including x86 assembly)... Then, well...

Jees.... A little harsh, are we?Read the f**king manual, search the f**king web, and come back when you've grown a pair.
