    FreeDOS plus-plus, 64bit DOS

  • kernel

    FreeDOS kernel - implements the core MS-DOS/PC-DOS (R) compatible operating system. It is derived from Pat Villani's DOS-C kernel and released under the GPL v2 or later. Please see http://www.freedos.org/ for more details about the FreeDOS (TM) Project. (by FDOS)

  • Here's the code for the kernel https://github.com/FDOS/kernel/ You will have to entirely rewrite the Assembly code since it is x86 assembly (Netwide Assembler is great, but not for ARM). Namely boot code is assembly. The kernel does compile under multiple compilers. I'm not too sure if ARM platforms handle this, but I would look at the Linux kernel for boot code on ARM.
