Nigel Barink 2e59e6593e Add proper Physical memory management to this branch
to ensure it doesn't get too out of date

We can now run the FAT command to demo reading out the FAT16 filesystem,
however this will cause the need for a reboot as after this command. We are FOR NOW
not able to put in any new commands

Writing an Operating system

As a learning experience!

Inspired by people like Linus Torvalds and Andreas Kling

Multiboot integration
Multiboot information can be read by the kernel.

ATAPI CD-ROM Identification
Correctly identified our ATAPI device 🎉


The goal

Writing a hobby operating system to better understand the basic building blocks of any operating system.Initially I'd like for my operating system to be able to run bash.


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.
