Project Novus
Rewriting my operating system project ever since I lost the source for it lol.
This time I got my stuff together and am going for a protected mode OS instead of real mode (bye BIOS taking care of disk functions
)
I named it project Novus just as a temporary name, and Novus because it means New, like my OS, lel.
Either way, I don't have much to show now, At the current moment I just have rewritten the first stage FAT12 bootloader, but I still have yet to write the 2nd stage
Just another update from a long Hiatus.
New boot loader is a lot better than the old one, I think
I also finally found out how to support Japanese text in a command line UI. Just change to video mode 12h (or manually set the VGA registers and hardware) and then you can draw each character as a bitmap loading from a file /retardmoment
