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.

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.
