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.

PCI enumeration

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.


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.
