I worked on a project with similar ambitions to this called Free95, it failed miserably because it was FAR too ambitious, and it died, last commit was months ago. If you do not have an understanding of the Windows API, OS development, the PE headers, Windows drivers, and more, you will fail just lik...

You should define a virtual memory layout that maps all available physical memory addresses according to your system’s requirements. Additionally, implement assembly-level routines to translate between physical and virtual addresses as needed.

Using -kernel does not work for multiboot2 or 1 images for me even with that, but I would recommend just making a grub image or something else with grub-mkrescue or the equ for whatever that bootloader does.

I'm using GRUB 2.12. That means you are getting 100% correct multiboot2 implementation, as GRUB2 is the reference implementation for multiboot2. I don't think the issue is with the pointer size because I'm emulating it in qemu-system-x86_64, which means it's also emulating a 64-bit system. That sai...

It is just a few quick questions (all anon ofc) about your OS and how you design it, what languages you use, I just want to get this to publish the statistics, nothing much other than pure curiosity.

Free95 is a minimal and simple hobby OS, we plan to have a custom kernel written from scratch, but to kinda just implement the windows API, its kinda like if you fused windows and a custom OS, except you only take the windows API, somehow it has multiple news articles written about it (just google F...

Any update on uACPI? I have been considering using it for a while now in my OS.

I noticed that on the Interrupts Tutorial page it mentions that the code is based on This but that project is licensed under the MIT which that should cause a licensing issue right? and could (in theory) lead to a similar situation that happened a while back (when I was a lurker with no account) in ...

int liballoc_lock(); int liballoc_unlock(); void* liballoc_alloc(int); int liballoc_free(void*,int); from the liballoc github page https://github.com/blanham/liballoc No it does not require those, it just requires you to make the above functions, which may do what you said or may not, my method is ...

Some of you likely helped me with stuff like the GDT/IDT in my custom OS PaybackOS, thank you for helping. PaybackOS has been decided by me (the main developer) to be rewritten, I have started working on it, it is called SlugOS and I am about to merge the new UEFI code (which uses posix-uefi since ...

For psychical memory management I would try using liballoc (with some mods) that is all I really know on the memory management front. liballoc first requires a physical and a virtual memory manager and implements malloc and free. So he still needs to get around paging, physical and virtual memory. ...

What license is this under? (can I use it in my public domain OS)
