Hello All,
I Made An Asm File Which Boots And Then Prints Some String Then Reboots After Keyboard Key Press, But Don't Know Where To Go Now I Can't Find Any Really Useful Tutorials About Making The Kernel And Filesystem, So Please Anyone Who Have Any Tutorials Please Post It.

Best Wishes,

The WIKI

You really can't find any information?

@LoardOmar,

How good are you at programming ASM? If you aren't comfortable programming, I suggest a simpler project than an OS. If you are good at ASM, (or C/C++ or whatever) than:

I suggest you look at the wiki.

If you are not aware of what a Kernel is, I suggest more research.
http://wiki.osdev.org/Monolithic_Kernel
http://wiki.osdev.org/Microkernel
http://wiki.osdev.org/Modular_Kernel

File system specs can be found on Wikipedia:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File_Allocation_Table
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Executable ... ble_Format

Remember, almost anything can be found online if you search hard enough.

Best wishes!
David

Several things:

Why are you making the first letter of Every Sentence Capital Like This? It's not really that bad, compared to other annoying typing habits, but seriously.

The file-system is not something to worry about at this point, you've got a ways to go. Maybe you aren't looking right? G-g-g-g-google!

thanks for the replies of you

@01000101

the wiki has seperated articles there isn't a complete boot sector for example

@DavidBG

I am fairly good at ASM & C but i cant find a practical example about (ex: switching from the bootloader to the kernel)

@piranha

sry for the capitals, all i want is a practical example for (bootloader, filesystem)

Thank you all for fast replies,

Lord Omar

Because as the good programmer you claim you are, you can fit all the pieces together yourself, right?

but i cant find a practical example about (ex: switching from the bootloader to the kernel)

Do you know what JMP does (in particular, JMP EAX and JMP FAR [DS:BX])?

Here's my example of loading a secondary binary file.

You too, young padawan, must learn that only by exercising a skill can you improve it.

Everytime I read these kind of messages I get the idea that every new developer that joins this forum lacks fantasy.

I am capable of imagine up to 6 fantasy coding solutions before the breakfast.(Sorry, I saw a curious movie last night)

Everyone has been a novice one time ago, just that everyone have its own way to be a novice, sometimes one seems stupid, other times distracted or even annoying.
