GENERAL
There is no real goal for this project other than to study the eCS-OS/2 booting process for my own interest. Most of my current notes and information is located on my wikka pages. I use Open Watcom as my programming tool of choice.

COMPILING
The original os2ldr was built as a com type program, but I have decided to do it in another way:
wlink format dos OUTPUT raw offset=0x0 op start=main file {object files} name myldr
The loader is place at 0x10000 in memory and control is passed at the same location. This location contains a jump instruction to the main procedure. I have verified that this will work using a test binary and Bochs.
