WHAT IS THIS?
This is a collection of notes and documentation I've written in the process
of building my own operating system (see also:
https://bitbucket.org/dgaur/dx and http://www.dangaur.com/portfolio/dx.html).
I'd originally toyed with the idea of turning these bits into a longer
whitepaper or even a book; and the outline is structured in that fashion.
Since that seems highly unlikely now, figured I'd just post them online.
THIS DOCUMENTATION IS TERRIBLE! WHO WOULD EVER READ THIS?!
Be aware that these documents are extremely rough, since I wrote them as
notes to myself, in my own cryptic shorthand, etc.
That said, I've scrubbed them (slightly) for semi-readability; I still
occasionally update or edit them; and I've been adding references
periodically as I stumble across interesting new papers or sources, etc.
For better treatment of these topics, try http://wiki.osdev.org/Main_Page
WHAT ARE THESE FILES?
outline.md: My OS development notes. Semi-organized, and vaguely
chronological.
references.md: A list of books, papers, links and other resources on
OS development. I've read some, but not all. In a few
rare instances, assessments of the sources themselves,
README: this file.
