I know you weren't THE author, heheh. I say "your tutorials" talking about the community in general.

Thanks for all of the help and wonderful tutorials, once again! I'm going to be hanging out here for a while if no one minds!

Thank God, finally! Stage two loads successfully now, and I get a little bit of error feedback when something goes wrong (but it doesn't go wrong now, since it works, lol). Now I've got to get this kernel booted in Pmode and I can get back to what I'm comfortable with: C! At least I learned enough A...

According to El Torito Spec, that's only true for *Floppy Emulation* (and of course, a real floppy works that way). This, and ISOLINUX, are meant to be run under *NO Emulation*. ISOLINUX has the same thing at the end - fill to 2046B and then add the boot signature. If that's not done, it won't even ...

Ok, I've got a MUCH better idea of what I need to do and how this works. I discovered that a HUGE part of my problem was that I was making the ISO images wrong. I kept wondering why ISOLINUX and other renowned bootloaders wouldn't even work when I built them, lol! That's sorted out now though. So, f...

Thanks again. I'm also trying to make sense of ISOLINUX bit by bit. Slowly but surely, all the ops are coming together in my head. I did pick up what you mentioned: mov [CDDrive], dl ; Save value of booting drive So I've got that saved. Going to follow your suggesting and see what I come up with. I'...

Yeah, that's sort of a big portion of the problem. It must be a real CD/DVD image, no floppy emulation. It's a basic design requirement, and the final target of this physically requires it. I wish I could elaborate, but I'm keeping my end goal under wraps for the time being. But I've got to learn ho...

Indeed, that's all I'm trying to do. If I can overcome this hurdle and get to working in C, then it will be relatively smooth sailing. I guess my biggest problem is I'm inexperienced with ASM, especially in the Ring 0 realm. I've been in user-land my whole programming career, and only learned some b...

Hi guys, I just registered here, and I was hooked by the wonderful tutorials which actually show you how to work on Windows in VS! This was about the only thing I could find with any comprehensive information (And took me 3 days just to find this). Everything else was for Linux/Unix users and a bunc...
