task switching problem

Post by DruG5t0r3 »

I'm trying to switch to some level 3 ring code. I'm getting this under bochs

iret: ARbyte indicated non code segment

I'm guessing something is wrong with my code descriptor and it doesn't indicate it's a code segment. What is ARbyte anyway?

that's something "internal" to bochs "Access Right", probably a summary of information gathered from the segment's descriptor.
