To ease the pain of debuggin I can now interact with the system through a very simplistic terminal. Hopefully things can be tested more easily by activating the piece through a simple command. The max characters for a command is 10. To achieve this I have had to make the following changes. - Changed IRQ to update a global status variable - Added a standalone keyboard driver with getKey functions - Changed the main kernel loop to display a prompt - Added a strncmp function to the clib/string file
Writing an Operating system
As a learning experience!
Inspired by people like Linus Torvalds and Andreas Kling

Multiboot information can be read by the kernel.
The goal
Writing a hobby operating system to better understand the basic building blocks of any operating system.
Operating System Technical specs/details
The operating system can print strings to the screen. The terminal/screen has scrolling so the latest messages are visible on the screen.
