Hello all,
I would like to know how an OS makes a computer boot up.
For that, as a start I would like to see an e_ample (read the
underscore as the letter before y, as the keyboard here is
defective) C program (along with instructions on how to compile
and usae it) that will take over when the computer boots and
print "hello world" and reboots the machine when 'enter' is
pressed. This will be something of a "hello world" OS (for me)
(I have tried to go through the boot.S (not sure about the name)
program in the Linu_ kernel source, but I could not understand
it since I am not familiar with assembly language).
I would be glad if someone could please point me in the right
direction.
Regards,
Santanu
