Hello there,
We've been developing an OS(experimental one). We wrote a boot program in assembly which boots from floppy and loads multiple sectors. We've planned to write a kernel that switches to protected mode after loading GDT and IDT. We want to write the code in C. Help us out.
Thankx

We did PM switch in Asm...Help us to load IDT in C atleast...What are the things to be done before switching to C while developing an OS(should any libraries or headers be written?)...Help
