Imho every beginnger programmer is planning to write an OS. I did a simple OS too (assembly, nasm). It's quite interesting task, but it doesn't worth: your OS may be not supported by any others than you :) [well, for contrast: every OS can begin in this way though] - Gabor - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
