Redesign

Post by crazygray »

Well guys, I've decided to just startover and redesign everything instead of just have incomplete thoughts in my head I'll make a design doc.

Actually I did make the bootloader I'm just redesigning the kernal.
I'm actually thinking about writing an assembler for my own purposes.

Gosh guys does everybody ask that question? It's a challenge, to test my skills and see if I can do it. Do you happen to have read the Hex Bootloader post.

The other question - why do you want to make your own assembler? there's tons to choose of :roll:

I'd like to hear more about the guy that wrote his bootloader in C.

let me rephrase: there's tons of good ones to choose of (which holds for assemblers - not for OSes). Besides we all know of the motivations one can have for the latter, no?

As far as I can see, writing your own assembler is hardly contributory to your efforts to complete your own operating system, you only have more options to mess things up.

Actually it's just an experiment. I'm not trying to out do any other assembler just for my own personal learning not for OS dev. :D
Didn't mean for it to sound like something else. :oops:
