I have read the bare bones tutorial but it's too simple,it just use the multiboot state and even has no paging.I want a full tutorial USING AT&T to tell me how to enter long mode from the multiboot state and how to prepare all things that a x86-64 operating system need.

Or maybe there's an x86-64 OS project which is more simpler than Linux I can learn from?Linux's code is too complicate for me~

While x86_64 become more popular choice beside x86/32, it seems that no one dare to write the tutorial (anyone?)

Anyway, booting into long mode does not differ much than booting into protected mode, you may get more resources here: X86-64
