when I load GDT and IDT to make system switch into protected mode and finish updating segments, bochs get a error message, it is '00000246631p[CPU ] >>PANIC<< fetch_raw_descriptor: LDTR.valid=0'. any help is appreciated!!

i'm not a bochs guru, but maybe you could try lldt 0, giving a value to the LDT register (but still without having to describe an LDT if it's not yet ready ;)
