For multitasking you could maybe use async apps that print to different parts of the framebuffer

[NathanMcMillan54]

When multitasking is added, it'll be used for lots of things, mostly drivers (which could mean a frame buffer). It'll be very helpful if you made a way to implement a working task handler for the x86 kernel. This function breaks everything when you call it, it causes a memory error idk how to deal with it and haven't really tried to.

b279b79 added multitasking for x86_64 kernel.

network drivers shouldn't be too hard as long as you know where to start

[NathanMcMillan54]

You can help start

I don't even know how the kernel operates 😂

The only problem with having UEFI support is that it automatically thinks your on APIC and fires a timer interrupt when you run the "sti" instruction causing the system to die unless you have APIC implemented in your system
