Hi pdbatwork! I think you're basically right :) You just need to find a good angle that gets you interested and motivated. I actually talked about this in a video a couple of months ago: Commute talk: How to start building an OS?

If you are motivated by building a compiler, go for it :) this will get you a really good understanding of your ABI ;) Also, the osdev.org wiki is a good starting point, reading other people operating system source code can also help (Just don't blindly copy and paste from other project some code might have some subtle bug which will come back hunt you down) also Andreas Kling's youtube channel is a good source of inspiration and motivation for me :) [video \- Andreas Kling's youtube channel daily video about OSDEV Also, this video is really good IMO [video
