Make hello world clearer #164

Closed NatElkins closed 6 years ago

NatElkins commented 7 years ago

Fixed incorrect explanation of words for hello world example. The value 0x0248 is one word, not two (each digit is 4 bits, 16 bits total). Also added a bit of context to explain word size in x86asm is different than word in the more general sense.

Hi! So sorry that I never got around to reviewing this PR. once https://github.com/intermezzOS/book/pull/182 is merged, this will need rebased; any interest in doing so and we can finally merge this?

Rebased. All good?
