Inspiration

Feel the BERN when you run this kernel.

What it does

It is a kernel, that has a memory manager, graphics library, and simple shell. Because it is a kernel, it runs DIRECTLY on the CPU, all in ring 0. We implemented this kernel entirely from scratch, without the use of any libc.

How we built it

We wrote it in C, and debugged with qemu

Challenges we ran into

x86, real mode, vga mode, memory management, a filesystem, keyboard interrupts,

Accomplishments that we're proud of

it boots on hardware, and can actually be used for some casual gaming

What we learned

a lot about memory management, as well as some magic CPU bits
