So, I have solved my library issue. Now I really want to load my os

emulator, but this is more of a learning project I am wanting to do
than a testing process.

What I have is the executable of my operating system that I have
compiled using gcc with all libraries statically linked in. For now,
I don't need to run any programs, everything is built in to the
operating system and run as tasks from my scheduler. I just want to
be able to put my executable on a flash drive and make the drive
bootable so that it will run my os. Is that possible? Any docs I can
read on how to do that?

In that case,
you can just put the flash drive in the secondary cable.
Format the D: drive with system image.
Put in autoexec.bat
loadlin your-operating-system-image

Using the flash drive in DOS FAT mode would
make it easy to update changes.
