using c we can develop an o s but where will it run or start to execute. who will execute the instructions of the kernel ? how to make a kernel,any idea or hint ? where do we get those low level services provided by assembly language functions ? there are no drivers on a blank machine ? any hint about what is pentium INT instructions ?

really, would be thankful to you for your guidance.

you need to do the bootloader in asm first before you can even call a c kernel
