GRUB does the real to prot transition in:
usr/src/grub/grub-0.95/stage2/asm.S
The kernel's GDT/IDT tables are set up in init_tables(), called from
_start()->mlsetup() in
usr/src/uts/i86pc/ml/locore.s
GRUB actually hands control over to "multiboot" (source code in
usr/src/psm/stand/boot), which transfers control to krtld. krtld
eventually hands control over to the kernel.
