Homebrew OS

Name: Anonymous 2011-11-26 9:34

Sup! I'm developer of tiny homebrew OS. My OS work with almost any x86 PC, have support for: Internet (via Ethernet-cards), HD resolutions, USB, FAT, NTFS, EXTFS. Video/audio players and consoles (NES/SNES/GB) presented too. Also there are compilers for C and Pascal, and interpreters of Lua and Python.
I need help with translating it to English, Japanese and other languages. Programmers and designers are welcome too. Write your answers plz.

I always view such thing as asm OS as demos with overcomplicated codebase.
I certainly lack skills to write an entire OS in asm, but i'm not that insane to dedicate a chunk of my life to debugging and iantaining such a herculean project. I'd rather write an OS in C, but i don't think i'll need it(there is no concrete reason to write it).
The complex parts of the low-level OS are usually not that interesting algorithmically(schedulers and kernel calling apis) and the rest is fairly standard code which is as bland as any java project boilerplate. If it cannot be complex because of low abstraction, it also prevents thinking as high-level language where you write algorithms abstractly. Asm forces primitive algorithms.
