OSDev.org

Hello everyone! I'm very interested in programming my own operating system, but I'm not sure what to download to begin. I'm willing to start anywhere. I've already read the FAQ with much of the entirety and I'm still confused with these strange abbreviations and the such. Maybe I can get someone to guide me in the right direction as to where to begin.

::)Welcome to the club. PLS e-mail me ([email protected]) anything you get, OSDEV is just as much a mystery to me.

In addition to this board you may want to read the newsgroup alt.os.development. Some very nice people there, and always ver interessting.

I must be stupid or something, but i've seen this "alt.os.development" thing, and heard good vibes, but I CAN'T GET TO IT!!! Is it http://alt.os.development, what? ???
Im lost

alt.os.development is a usenet newsgroup
[url=news://alt.os.development]news://alt.os.development[/url]
(may work).

you need a news reader like winagent lite, etc.

Or you can check it out at Google if you don't have a newsreader:

Ok, thanx. I don't have a newsreader and was about to ask you where to get one.

hello, I'm a newbie too to the OS programming. Is there a PDF or HTML format to help me with this. Coding is not new to me, but need some information how to write a OS.

thanks
