Humbly speaking, my OS is working like gangbusters. In 6 months I have:

1. Setup/Installed
a. IDT
b. GDT
c. IRQ
d. ISR
e. PIT
f. Paging
g. Terminal

Now, I am going to start work on my FDD/HDD drivers, my generic (FDA Approved) RegEX engine, a fancy splash screen would be nice, and that's it I guess for the beta version. Maybe some coding enhancements wherever possible, tweaking, etc. Oh, I'd also like to boot from CD/USB/FDD, if possible, but FDD is cool for now I suppose (testing).

Anyway, just got excited and wanted to share with the group. Good night.

Maybe you could write the device driver interface and the virtual file system before FDD/HDD drivers.
And if I were you I would write better my virtual memory manager (it's only an advice because I've rewritten it very many times, and now it's really beautiful, or better wonderful )

Your OS will grow only if you have a solid basis, and this solid basis is the OS's design.
