I have a version of libc that has a lot of code written in assembly. All of the Linux interface, all the string stuff, etc. You can have a copy, if you want. That is a start.
This will be a big project. There's a lot more to the Linux kernel than just creating some I/O capability. Linux has to emulate Unix so it's a lot more work than rolling your own 32-bit OS with a file-system.
Cheers, Dick Johnson Penguin : Linux version 2.4.24 on an i686 machine (797.90 BogoMips). Note 96.31% of all statistics are fiction.
