This is awesome, thanks. I would love to see an equivalent using C so that one could learn to make a more portable OS for other ARM chips.

Realistically, you have to have some assembly in every operating system to do things like service interrupts and enter protected mode (in the case of x86).

However I agree that as/if they expand this tutorial, it would be useful to introduce some C or C++
