several people here have a kernel going on... Me and smeezykitty have tried to compile one using Turbo C with little success so I ask the veterans here (ahmm Love4Boobies) to let us know what tools have you used to compile your kernel... all we want is a C compiler that can compile a bin file with our own custome library, that does not need DOS, or Windows or Linux... we just want to load a bin file (a kernel) onto memory, run it and have it load other bin files (programs) and run them as well... |

I guess it depends on what OS you are running... Of course in Linux, gcc is used to compile anything and everything. In Windows however, I am not sure what is best for compiling a kernel. Maybe MinGW or Cygwin would work (gcc ports to Windows). Since I am not much of a C/C++ programmer, I have limited knowledge of C compilers. -JP Tech |

I use Windows 7 and Cygwin. I have a port of GCC & Binutils for each target machine. For devving I use Dev C++, a rubbish IDE, but better suits my needs compared to Microsoft C++ IDE. |

Somebody actually uses the windows debug.com, I wasn't expectin that to pop up lol, I'm even suprised people know how to use it. Its actually a nice little program. |

Debug is easy to use. You can even use it to view the hex output from any file you create. I prefer it over partcopy. |
