Welcome to FoolOS
=================
Disclaimer
----------
THIS IS A WORK IN PROGRESS.
This is a simple and useless "operating system", with very basic
features, sorry. It is the fruit of my fundamental explorations of
the x86 architectures, 32-bit protected mode, interrupt handling,
memory management, scheduling the floppy disk controller, networking
as well as VESA and a couple of other things.
