# os
A very basic bootloader & operating system, written in x86 assembly and C++.
I'm using this as a learning project, so it's not very functional.
## Building
To build this, you need the basics (GCC/G++, Make, NAsm) and QEmu to run. The operating system is built for x86, 32-bit processor.
Using make, you can build by running `make all`. To run with QEmu using the default settings, you can run `make run`.
## References
The basis for this project was formed as I worked through the book _Writing a Simple Operating System -- from Scratch_ by Nick Blundell.
Some code was referenced/adapted from [a repository](https://github.com/cfenollosa/os-tutorial) based on on the same book created by Carlos Fenollosa.
