Hello all,
I'm a new to Ada and very interested in learning this language.
Currently, I'm trying to write a small program in ada compiled by gnat,
  to boot an ordinary PC, something like grub. I'm wonderring whether
ada can do this low-level task and how may I use the gnat progma to
achieve this. Please advise if you know how to do this.

Many thanks.

Joe
