im starting a new os and need some help cause i dont no any program language i tryed asm but there is no good guides so if u want to help me email me at [email protected] and leave some suggestions

coding an operating system without programing knowledges is not really a good idea.

you have to learn ASM for low level programing
then u can use C/C++ or other programing language to code high level routines



google is your best friend for documentation

thanks do u no asm

ok man i looked up some c++ guides and asm then whats next

Update i have made an kernel that works if u want a copy of it leave me your email address also if you want to help with the devolopment of the kernel or to make programs for the kernel email me at [email protected]

Instead of passing around email addresses, you could post your kernel on a web server somewhere and provide a link. Posting you email address publicly is a great way to get a lot of spam.

Reading a C++ "guide" is not going to prepare you for developing an operating system...

um kermit i no thats y i have local ppl helping me and i already made the kernel so anything else thank for the input.
and rexlunae im in the process of makin the website it should b up on the 7th of Jan. and if you have any suggestions on how to make it better fell free to tell me and if you want to help out on the project u have my email address

i have a question: what command do u use to create a folder under
C++ and what command do u use to open a folder or a file under C++

*There is no 'command' like Qbasic ore something*

If you are talking about a Windows/Linux OS, try google and you will find a lot of stuff, API's

If you mean, coding an OS setting up a file-system , floppy drivers, HDC drivers etc. and load your files on your own way.
