Protected Mode, A20, Kernel In General, A Problem..

Post by AvengerX »

Ok, so i have a boot sector that loads a raw binary file (like dos COM).. it adopts the FAT file system... well.. that's all fine and well, but it gets to

"Loading AXNET.." (a dot per kernel file sector) and dies.. no triple fault, cpu doesnt reset.... my kernel loads in this order: i call the a20 linit code (nasm) and then i call the pmode init code and i jmp to the main function in the C file.. should i insert here the shell script i have to compile it and such? i don't know.. hrm. any help appreciated..
