 Re: How do i get my kernel to load binary programs? well you have quite a dilema cause BASM and TC won't make a far without complaining, you need to change both CS and IP and to do that is to do a far CALL or JMP... BASM seems to only want to jump to labels created within TC so I don't see a way out...
external assembly was the only way I found... dunno what else to tell ya...

Re: How do i get my kernel to load binary programs? I have a trick up my sleeve that may eliminate the need for exec.asm
make a near call from TC and in stub.asm a.k.a call.asm you issue a far JMP to an address close by that would correct the values of CS and IP and when main returns you make CS and IP back the way it was...
but that is clearly a hack and TC, BASM, TASM and TLINK have all proven effective at ruining something somewhere... anywho I'll try that after the weekend...

Re: How do i get my kernel to load binary programs? FIXED IT! i had to change the Code: extern pascal int exec(char *);
to Code: extern "C" pascal int exec(char *);
shit yeah!

Re: How do i get my kernel to load binary programs? huh what does the "C" mean???
"C" calling convention??
is it possible to have a hybrid pascal+C calling convention??
I don't quite remember well but I believe that it might be possible to specify the OBJ file inside the souce code... but I don't remember if that was turbo pascal or turbo C
