ok, I am currently learning ANSI C and I am getting very good with it, although I am trying to write a kernel in C and from the example code for kernels written in C looks very different than ANSI... is there a difference between the two that I should know... why is it this way?... I have tried to load a kernel written in plain ANSI C from grub and I just doesnt work... do I need to write some kind of suppport code to execute plain ANSI C code?... thx for the help...

Hi bilbo,
there once were different versions of C but the language has been standartized back in the 1980s.

Could it be that the code you're refering to is written in C++ ?
Maybe you could post a link to it and say what exactly is your problem with it.
