After the ATA/IDE harddisk driver from Frank is finished, I'll start coding on the filesystem for Xope.
It's a very simple, based on ext/2 filesystem.
Maybe I'll put in a journaling function, but I'm not sure at the moment.
When the FS is finished, depends on Franks driver. - But I don't want to make you much work. - You have to do other things (and other projects too).

I'm currently fixing an asm bootsector at the first sector of the partition.
That sector should load the C bootblock (which still has to be written) which should mount the filesystem, load kernel etc.
Oterwise, I'm currently busy with the bootblock.

I have been coding on my 3d engine for a pretty long time, so I didn't do much on the os.
I will do some stuff on the os next week.
- the (ATA/IDE) floppy disk driver
- the (ATA/IDE) harddisk driver
- the second stage bootloader.
No sure what I'll finnish in the week,
Frank

ok, the stuff really changed from the plans.
