[Osso-develop] hi:Asheesh

[aa <uc...@ya...>]

Hi Alessandro,

I would love to contribute for the OSSO project. Let me tell you  my
skill set - I know C/C++..I am not very good at x86 asm. I have been
learning about OS development since about last 4/5 months (mainly
through news groups).
I have a 'spare' P2 machine with 4gb hardisk/ 64mb ram/ CD/floppy/NIC
.which I can use for OSSO testing  :-)...
I think , with my state of skills ...I cannot contribute much as far as
 OS coding is concerned...but I can certainly help you in testing &
documentation. I think this will help in my learning process a lot.
Since I work ( have a job), I can only work on weekends...so I can give
10 hrs a week ( of course I wont ask for money ;->>).

Let me know your opinion and what the other team members feel.

In the meantime, I had following questions...
1. where can I find more help on BCC? like '-Ms' & '-ansi' option
2. I wanted to know what is the executable format that is generate? I
think it is a.out- I saw the bootloader.nasm code and there is a
'%ifdef BCCLOADER '  and I cannot understand what is done within this
%ifdef and %endif part...particularly, where does it jump to  if
BCCLOADER is defined ?
3. is there a tool like objdump for 16bit code?

Thanks a lot
Best regards
Asheesh
