yaos (yet another OS)

Post by DruG5t0r3 »

I've made it past bootloading, pmode, some simple memory management and paging...and the hello world part.

the bootloader goes in unreal mode and loads the kernel past the 1mb mark all within 512 bytes. Unreal mode is pretty nice...you can still access the BIOS normally and access any memory range within 4gb.

Web site soon to come.

"real multitasking"?
You could do software multitasking, and you can do that even in realmode.

yes , but if you do software multitasking you have to emulate all protection and stack management stuff ...
