You could use cosmos or just use grub and be over with it :). I don't think writing a chainer would be trivial, if you are interested in doing this, it would...
Thank you, I`m beginner [:)] ,and i want to know from i start learn , and how make that, ... interested in doing this, it would be invaluable. Once you get...
I doubt it is possible to boot the next device after cosmos has booted. Grub/Syslinux/whatever bootloader does this by utilizing a BIOS call. In Cosmos we...
my graduation project about RLS ( Remote Laptop Security ) we want boot from USB and check connection by internet , after that load the default OS of user...
First of all, I'm not completely sure. But my impression is as follows: you need BIOS calls to have the bios boot the next option in the bootsequence. You can...
I don't know the specifics, but to boot a device, don't you just load the boot sector in (to a specific location in) memory then jump to it? If so it could be...
Both bootloaders and bootsectors make assumptions: cosmos assumes the multiboot spec. grub/isolinux/most bootloaders assume being loaded by the bios (and the...
Please do extensive testing of the current sources. I checked in a refactoring of some frequently used instructions, and I already discovered some issues with...
Does anyone know of a managed assembler (by which one that could be used to compile asm in .NET)? I've come across a managed wrapper for FASM but a fully...
Shameless plug: The MOSA project is compiling directly to native code with its compiler framework and managed runtime. The code emitters we have could be used...
Ok, making progress. I'm working on keeping the individual instructions as dumb as possible, but still letting them the possibility of doing the full...

Correct, and it (is going to be) compiles x86 too, in a bit. The following kernel (putting 'A' in upper left corner) is also possible already: mov eax, 0xB8000...
Status update: I have Move completely working, including all tests. It uses the framework as I had attended: it specifies 3 encoding options (ways to let the...

You are looking for calling BIOS functions. this is not possible at the moment in cosmos. we dont want that either, as that leads to crappy drivers. (in fact,...
Have a look at VBE. On Wikipedia you can find the reference to the .pdf specifications, and here's some info on how to get the protected mode info: (combined...
Ops, I have started to work on it. Ok, changing.. :p Ah, Matthijs, can I now re-add the empty opcode I have deleted (obviusoly adjusting him to the newer...

ok thanks. that makes some sense and i know the version 3 of the vesa BIOS has protected mode access as well but i assume i should stay away from that as...
As long as we stay in 32 bit mode we are ok, and whatever we use is widely supported. So we should not use EFI, but VESA I think is a good candidate. From:...
I've looked into this (I'm the one who wrote the semi finished VGA driver). Unfortunately there is no standard that doesn't use BIOS calls, so a driver will...
Stephen, the VBE seems to be widely in use. It wont be as highperforming as specific drivers, but will fit the job for now. it does seem that bochs (default...
VBE stands for VESA BIOS Extension. It requires BIOS calls. (I'm fairly sure of this as I did do alot of reading into this). I think this post sum it up: ...
I think it's safe to have a "VESA +VBE3" driver, as it is generic. We should just try to find out if vmware and qemu support it, as that are the main ...
