what code are operating systems written in? Just curious.

its more about the kernel version rather than the actualy language they are written in.

well, intel and amd have a cache code written so you can write your own kernal code. but it takes years to write a kernal code. so give up. my advise is to strip down the top level of linux and rewrite it. That is what Linux and Apple did, took apart Unix's code. (but you just ask what they are made of, yes they are made using kernal code)

But, you can only use certain kernals with certain CPU's as the kernal is programed to use the same assembler language as the CPU, if they don't match, it won't even turn on

o I wasn't interested in writing an OS, I was just curious

thx for the answers guys!
