Since I also love electronics as much as computers, I thought of adding these features.

Sure, It`s going to be finished in 2-3 weeks. then I`ll post the download link.
Is there a link to download then test your XtremeOS ?
I know XtremeOS which is a Mandriva Linux distribution : https://archiveos.org/xtremeos/
Is it the same ?
msdos 2.0 needed like 64k, ELKS needed 256k minimum and 384k in order to actually run anything else and xenix needed 512k, so i think the memory requirement is a bit unrealistic. i'm currently writing an x86 asm os as well, though it's for my 8088 sbc which has 384k of ram and 128k of rom and is going to be stored in rom instead

No, mine was based off MikeOS "https://mikeos.sourceforge.net/". It was a small project I had undertaken in 10th grade without much knowledge on how a computer works. Sadly most of the files were deleted during a computer reset. Here is some files I managed to save: https://github.com/prostyle4444
Not much though. I still think currently developing an OS is beyond me currently.
