I've contemplated building a operating system for some time now. I'm interested in knowing everything I can about it from the memory management to how the BIOS understands to boot to it.
Anyone got any valuable information that they have uncovered on the subject? Source code would be nice to see as well. :D

You want to build a OS from nothing or one based on like a unix shell?

If you do create an OS and you succeed in doing this..you will become similar to Bill Gates.. I hope you do succeed and you allow your good friends here on codecall to be you betatesters:)

Build from scratch! Right now I'm interested in know how to get a computer to boot with my own code.

Overview
This semester SigOPS will hold a series of meetings discussing how to build an operating system from scratch. We provide the structure for developing your Very Own OS, you write the code. It's that simple!
The Plan
What follows is an outline of the next eight or so SigOPS meetings this semester. We'll be posting all the critical information on these here web pages, so if you miss one (or have missed everything up to this point), no need to worry. Just catch up and come to the next meeting.
Hopefully, any SigOPS member who wants to write an operating system will have done so by the end of this excursion. Stay tuned for information and updates on our progress!
Table of Contents
* 0. Introduction
* I. Development Environment
* II. Debugging Methods
* III. Applications
* IV. Memory Management
* V. Multitasking
* VI. Interprocess Communication
* VII. Hardware Interrupts and Drivers (work in progress)
* VIII. Symmetric Multiprocessing (external link)
* IX. References

That is an excellent resource you have put their xtraze.. I myself have been doing much technical studies lately so will be taking a glance at your link.
