Quote:"Assembly" is not a language.

Man, if you talk on the street with a person that knows Intel x86/x64 Syntax, you can talk about assembly. It's correlated.

Oh, REALLY? I didn't know about that!!! Man, you've saved my life!!! ¬¬

Thanks to Shonumi and lamedude, you tried to help me, instead of mumbling and flaming me.

Quote:There was a guy, Mike Saunders I believe, who used to work for Linux Format. He did what you're looking to do. IIRC, he made MikeOS from scratch in x86 assembly. The project should still be active, and since it's open source, you can look at the code to get an understanding of how it all works together. He even showed how to make a bootloader (super basic though) in a fairly recent issue, I'll have to look through my back issues later to find it. At any rate, I'm sure you could talk to him directly if you have questions.

THAT is the response of my question. (Especially about the BOOTLOADER!!!!)

EDIT: Huh, and, about the manual, I've found something similar...
