I'd say if whoever has enough drive to try something like this, simply
start by implementing the kernel. Something relatively simple so that
your PC can boot using a Object Pascal written kernel. No matter if
there is no user interaction, shell or user level programs. Just show
that you CAN write a bootable kernel in Object Pascal would already
achieve the "wow" factor.
I have a question about this, relating to what the free pascal compiler can
actually do ?
Does free pascal compiler actually implement and support the entire x86
instruction set/registers ?
Since "application space" is different from "kernel space".
For example:
asm
// full instruction set support possible ?
end;

Skybuck.
