Re: Start from harddisk
Theres multiple places you need to write to on the HDD, in order to boot properly. I've forgotten the actual addresses, but I'm sure I can dig them up from my backups. Gimme a sec.

Nope, couldn't find them. Google is your friend though. Try searching there.
Most of my stuff is floppy only.

Re: Start from harddisk
I haven't got anything using ASM. All I wrote for the Floppy, was the actual boot. The rest was in C. I don't think I have it in my backups. Look at some Open Source Operating Systems, such as ReactOS, TinyOS, etc.
