I started trying to do that at one point, but never got my kernel much
farther than booting just enough to run "Hello, world!" compiled with
6c on a FAT filesystem in ring 0 and then crashing the system before
deciding I don't have the time to finish it or get it somewhere
useable. If anyone who has the time is interested in picking it up,
contact me off-list and I'll send you a link to my (horribly written
and designed) code.

I'm more of a userspace kinda guy anyways..
