 A minimal kernel to showcase the usage of bootloader.
 
 The kernel:
-- Initalizes a serial port on [COM1](https://wiki.osdev.org/Serial_Ports#Port_Addresses)
+- Initializes a serial port on [COM1](https://wiki.osdev.org/Serial_Ports#Port_Addresses)
 - Dumps the [`boot_info`](/api/src/info.rs) it received from `bootloader`
 - Prints a message
 - Exits QEMU with a custom exit code via the `isa-debug-exit` device
