  • Answer:

    dude.....you need to slow way down. If your not even sure where to start, you have a long path ahead. I suggest you start with LFS (Linux From Scratch) http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/ Get the latest stable kernel from there and build upon it, this will teach you the basics of building an OS, and there are forums & other resources available there. To write your own kernel, and GUI enviorment from scratch is an incredibly labor intensive proposition, It could take you years to write and debug and come up with anything usable... Hope that helps and Good Luck!

Judging by your questions you are not close to ready to create your own operating system. I'd recommend starting with something a bit smaller. If you're desperate to play with operating systems, download a Linux distribution and edit the source files. Creating an operating system from scratch isn't easy stuff.

If I exposed my think here, Y/A would delete my answer very quickly! ;-) And, instead of making your own OS, why not use Linux and put enhancements on that? Even if you knew what you are doing, writing a OS from scratch, would take men-years of programming.
