Hi for some reason i can't find any thing talking about this.

i'm using my own stage1 bootloader, when i'm using the 'straight to long mode' example boot loader as a stage2, (then then calls my kernel) i'm not sure if it's how the example code sets it up or what not but;

My issue is when ever i try to access memory passed 0x100000 it ticks over back to 0, example if i was to read 0x007c00 or 0x107c00 or 0x207c00, it'd be the same result can reading/writing to 0x7c00,

my exact test code is: when i look at memory 0x140000 is null, and 0x040000 is 199

is the issue i'm having due to the setup from this code http://wiki.osdev.org/Entering_Long_Mode_Directly or something else i'm doing terribly wrong/ haven't done yet?

I'm sorry i'm pretty new to this and looking forward to your help!

It look like there is problem with your page directory content

fair enough, i was looking into it, ran out of hours to spend on it, knowing that that is the issue i'm good to spend a few more haha (i haven't changed what was in the longmode example at all but tweaking a few things had no effect at first, will go deeper)

thanks

Did you enable the A20 line?

It seems you're using Intel syntax, so I guess mov desk, face would be more convenient
