Project mention: Pluto – An x86 (Ring 0, Protected Mode) kernel written in Zig | news.ycombinator.com | 2026-06-01
I like the following x86 assembly real-mode to protected-mode bootloader a lot! (Taking a quick glance, it seems to be very well written and robust -- at least as far as "old-skool" (should run on ancient PC's back to 386's!) FAT, non-UEFI, x86 assembly bootloaders go...)
