How do I make a bootloader that boots into a c kernel
It's way easier to use a pre-existing bootloader. I recommend Limine. It has it's own boot protocol that's designed for x86_64. You don't need any additional setup as it's already booted to long mode unlike Multiboot which needs you to switch to long mode since it's booted in protected mode. You can find an example kernel here.

MaslOS
It uses Limine as the Bootloader but I used Ponchos OS Dev Playlist as a base.

Any tutorials that use UEFI instead of legacy BIOS
Just use limine (https://github.com/limine-bootloader/limine). An example kernel is available here.

A piece of advice
Leave 'efi application' off, and start with kernel and Limine bootloader (https://github.com/limine-bootloader/limine).

Crash when loading IDT (using Rust)
Hi I've been following this guide on how to create an OS in rust. However, I decided on using Limine as a bootloader instead of rust os-dev bootloader, which provides a framebuffer. Not just the default VGA output.
