Real OS for project

Post by emfader »

I want to implement a mini real OS for my final year of Computer Engineering. Please can someone give me a guide for developing a small OS. Can Someone recommend me books for it?
I would like to know how to create an OS from scratch.
I was looking at this book

Every good solution is obvious once you've found it.

Assuming you've just started your final year, don't do it. One year is not enough to learn and implement all the necessary things. You've been warned.

Do a REAL MODE OS (takes about an afternoon and a bit assembly):) Examples are: MIKE OS...
*EDIT DONE FOR THOSE WHO CANNOT TELL THAT THESE ARE NOT REAL MODE OSes SUCH as nesphoro*

And among these complaints, Beginner Mistakes have not been listed.


Find a better subject or show us that you actually attended a computer science education that actually teaches what that subject is actually about.

He's not the first, nor will he be the last. At least he's been friendly about it.

Actually at least two of those OSs work in Protective Mode.
So please if you try to make a rage comment, at least make sure your arguments are valid.
In this case they aren't.
