I wonder what manuals out there for os development.

I wonder how can I access first sector of HDD/USB Drive where does it loaded into, location of frame buffer, and so on.

can someone please let me know where can I find such official manuals?

Answer 1

Here is a basic tutorial on how to make an OS (assuming you mean operating system): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6MJUGVFAXKg.

It's pretty good, but you need to learn the assembly language first (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Assembly_language).

Hope I helped!

Answer 2

"Operating System Design and Implementation" by Andrew S. Tanenbaum and Albert S. Woodhull.

It takes you through step-by-step, and if you follow the instructions you should end up with an OS at the end.
