I searched the wiki and the internet for "Load & Run Programs" regarding OS development and found no tutorial/script on this topic. I can manage multitasking and start routines in the memory, but that's not enough to run external programs. Please link me to a very good overview article.

First, you implement filesystem and disk drivers. Then you use your FS driver to load the file off of the disk. Then you relocate certain file formats and jump to the code.
