It may be free, but it seems to be very limiting and I just dont like it |

The host OS can be either Windows or Linux, depending on the machine. At one point the x86 port of my OS was able to run GCC via a POSIX wrapper I quickly hacked in but now I have a regression and haven't figured out why it doesn't work anymore. I'm guessing it's a problem with the wrapper itself, not the OS so I'm not looking into it at the moment. Just wanted to say I was close to self-hosting

I use Linux exclusively. I use GCC, NASM for development. |

I am building a high-bread kernel eventually (runs in realmode and switches to protected mode if neccary and processor supports it), i am keeping support for intel 8088 LOL. |

Why suport the 8088? Hardly anyone has an 8088 based pc.. I can understand from a leraning point of view, but wouldn't it be more productive and relevant to target 64-bit platforms? |

LOL i am kind of anti-64 bit. Most of my computers dont even supprot it. and i have 100% 32 bit os's. Besides it a actually wastes more ram so its counter productive unless you have 4gig + ram. Also making a hobby os to support a messy new unstable platform makes about as much sense as 8 + 8 = 0xF. - I targeted the 8088 because its more challenging. |
