This is a bit off-topic for this board -- this board is for debian package
sponsorship, and discussion related to maintaining debian packages.
http://linuxquestions.org has a forum about programming. Maybe ask there for
anything else you want to know (instead of being off-topic here)
However, I'll give you a couple pointers to get you started:
- nasm and yasm seem to be the assemblers available in Debian right now.
- get an emulator (I use Bochs), you won't have to reboot and you'll be able
to use a debugger.
- Look up http://www.linuxassembly.org/ (assembly programming in linux) and
http://www.osdever.net/ (all about writing operating systems)
