YEAH! I just implemented a VERY BASIC module loading system into my kernel!
it can (from command prompt) load a small module into the kernel.
It has size restrictions (512 KB) but I am almost done getting rid of that.
I also go a reading part of FAT12 working, writing is almost done.

Well done!
I remember when I first loaded a module - all it did was poke a byte to the screen but it was fun nonetheless.

Why were there limits? Just interested to know if it was because of your FAT driver or something else.It has size restrictions (512 KB) but I am almost done getting rid of that.

Well, I removed the limitations. They were there because for some reason it was slower when they were unloaded, but it was because my unloader function was inefficient.
