Just got my bootloader and real mode kernel working on 80s hardware!
I recently got my hands on a IBM PC Convertible (model 5140), rocking an Intel 8088 CPU and 256KB of RAM! I had to get my bootloader and kernel running on this thing, and after a few weeks of fixing up bugs its finally working!!! For those interested on the source code: FAT12/16 Bootloader (github.com) SuccOS: A hobby Operating System (github.com)
