How to make an Operating System??

[Sux0rZh@jc0rz]

after reading punkskators post about his online OS, i just wondered... how in the hell does one go about making an OS? what language would you use? Binary? and if so, how would you get the binary into the machine in the first place? how would you "download" and "install" the OS onto a computer that doesn't already have an OS...????

you could use java c++ c pasal you name it. Also to instal an os you would basically put it on a partition from disk or network or something like that, you need to boot from same drive to instal it. Their is obviously a rom on the machine, bios, that would take the input and save it and do all that stuff.
