What do you mean a compiler, assembler, emulator, linker, ...
What exactly are you looking for?

Some Compilers
Some assembler

I got some emulator and possibly need some linker software.

Try NASM for an assembler, it's great...
For a linker try LD
For the compiler, which language do you want to code your OS in? if it's C I'd recommend GCC...

This has been asked countless times, and I believe the proper answer is: did you look at the wiki? It has the answers you're looking for.

Ahem, I don't believe I need to "chill." I simply pointed the guy toward the wiki, where this question is already answered. The wiki being the great resource that it is, it is also full of tutorials for beginners and lots of information about how to get started, which seems to be the stage this guy is at.

I won't bother to mention anything about the sticky thread entitled "FORUM RULES - REQUIRED READING - FAQ" where the very first rule is "Don't ask answered questions" and is followed by links off to the forum search page, the osdev wiki, and google.

Anyway....

DT170x, please spend some time reading the wiki. Start with the link in my above post, and read all the linked articles. You'll come away with a good understanding of what you need to get started. And if you choose to follow any of the tutorials there, you'll also have a nice barebones platform to start your development on. Another pretty decent reference is http://www.jamesmolloy.co.uk/tutorial_html/. JamesM's tutorial series is definitely more complete than the others on the wiki.

What I meant is you didn't need to be so aggressive...
I mean, I can hardly talk, I've been very aggressive at times, but if the guy is trying to get into OSdev and he's having trouble because he's having difficulty with his English, you being aggressive is just going to exacerbate things and may cause him to quit....

good luck. Plus look at some of the operating systems that other people at osdev created and learn the code. some people use assembly and some use C / C++
