I Found some stuff and applications that noobs or pro's could find helpfull.
Brandon F. had a good tutorial for making an OS. A Great Starter Kernel and a Floppy Image .img w/ Grub it's on Bona Fide.
FAT\FAT16\FAT32 Accessability (for OS's without File Systems) - Download the source to FreeDOS (note it's C Based, so may not work for people going full ASM or any other language.
Emulation Testbed - DosBox. Works great with any bootable .img file, you can tell if your OS Works with Audio\Video\IRQs\IDTs\ect. little bit easier than bochs. beacause you mount your .img directory in to dosbox then type in boot C:\myos.img
