I was looking for similar resources earlier, mostly for learning
purpose, I could gather following information,

For minimal and baremetal OS development on x86,
http://www.osdever.net/bkerndev/Docs/gettingstarted.htm

For little advanced OS development which includes paging and
multitasking support (but in crude way),
https://web.archive.org/web/20160311205056/http://www.jamesmolloy.co.uk/index.html

Above has some known issues (beware and good to chase),
http://wiki.osdev.org/James_Molloy's_Known_Bugs

Xv6 (as already suggested) is rather more comprehensive with very good
documentation,

This is also good starting point, but requires good patience, I
dropped from 6th stage as responses were extremely slow.

I could get to below with above references (basic but functional),

Best luck!
