I have on my list to read something along the lines like this, but this seems incomplete. Does anyone have anything similar?
It does not focus on the concrete implementation of an OS though.

Maybe not exactly what you're looking for, but here's a linux specific ebook similar to this[1] [1]: https://0xax.gitbooks.io/linux-insides/content/

For a comprehensive book on the theory behind operating systems I can recommend "Modern Operating Systems" by Andrew S. Tanenbaum. It does not focus on the concrete implementation of an OS though.
Surely: Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) ?

Author here. Yes, it's a x86 operating system. However, rather than getting around A20, it focused on protected mode instead. The book not only teaches x86, but how to use the official resources from the hardware manufacturer to write the OS. In sum, a reader when reaching part 3 for writing the OS, he will need to use the official document, in this case, the "System Programming Guide" manual from Intel to write C co…

You still have to open the A20 gate in the bootloader if you want to access a memory adress that has bit 20 (counting from 0) be set to 1 (you probably want) - even if you switch to protected mode. The only exception is if you boot from UEFI instead of BIOS - in this case the A20 gate is alr…
