Hi guys,
I'm developing a small operating system to teach me some theoretics and do some pratical work.
But I've a question towards paging and segementation. If I set up the base address for a segement when paging is enabled with an own page dir. for each segement, is the correct base address 0x0, because we refer to the first byte in the page dir?
And how does page mapping exactly work?

Maybe be you can give me some links or book recommendations towards this topic.

thanks
