Ok, i haven't really ever posted much about my OS. because well, its not doing anything that all the other ones posted here dont already do. But today I decided to because I finally am able to Ping my kernel! So its time to celebrate this milestone. I'm peeing my pants!

Looks good. I'm especially impressed by your networking support. I plan to persue your code and find out how you did it so that I can try it out.
How long have you been working on it?

I looked at the ne2000 and text driver.
I agree. I like it a lot. It looks like you took some time to think about driver structure, and therefore you appear to have the ground work for loading them at run time unless that is already what you are doing.
That is a whole lot better than the guys who just post some impressive screen shot and then you check out the guts and find for lack of better words a enormous main function with no modular boundaries to anything, or what I like to call no backbone.
That hard work should pay off instead of taking the short route like most, and on the side note. If I wanted pretty graphics I would have joined a forum relating to GIMP or some other tool of the such.

He's uploaded one in his CVS repository.

That is an oldddd old image. You'll have to build the kernel and make fdimage.
As of now the IP address for the network interface is hard coded into the kernel init function. although i have a system call setup for setting the ip. Just need to write a little user space app for setting it. Thats just farther down on the todo list though. :]
I can try to put up an up to date floppy image tonight though for those of you who dont have a dev environment setup.

I'm just lazy to build stuff myself.
