Hello to every one; I am a engineering student & for my satisfaction I am trying to develop a loader to load a own made program (which is a emulator) at boot time. My moto is to make a CD- ROM emulator so that the ISO (of any OS stored in HDD) can be run to install the OS (this way one can install OS without makin CD of it). I will wellcome any sort of help in this regard, any link (about making loaders in C or general) or CD-ROM emulator or something else u think of my use. WELLCOME & THANKS for u programmers form a learing student.

Bochs is in C++, but I was able to modify it for my uses just with my limited grasp of C.
