OSDever Kernel Error with NASM
Posted: Sun May 29, 2011 5:25 pm
I followed the kernel tutorial at http://www.osdever.net/bkerndev/Docs/basickernel.htm, and I recieved the two errors:
My Assembly code is as follows:
Any Help?

; This is the kernel's entry point. We could either call main here,
; or we can use this to setup the stack or other nice stuff, like
; perhaps setting up the GDT and segments. Please note that interrupts
; are disabled at this point: More on interrupts later!

mov esp, sys_stack ; This points the stack to our new stack area
jmp stublet
; This part MUST be 4byte aligned, so we solve that issue using 'ALIGN 4'

; Shortly we will add code for loading the GDT right here!
; In just a few pages in this tutorial, we will add our Interrupt
; Service Routines (ISRs) right here!
; Here is the definition of our BSS section. Right now, we'll use
; it just to store the stack. Remember that a stack actually grows
; downwards, so we declare the size of the data before declaring
; the identifier '_sys_stack'
SECTION .bss
resb 8192 ; This reserves 8KBytes of memory here
