Writing an Operating system

As a learning experience!

Inspired by people like Linus Torvalds and Andreas Kling

Screenshot(s)

The first scrolling boot screen. 😲

W.I.P - Working on interrupt handling

Multiboot information can be read by the kernel.

Enabled paging and am getting page faults!

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.
