Thanks! That's interesting! i3 is a 64-bit CPU, right? So the check for long mode doesn't work? I would at least expect an error message. The checks are done in "pilos/x86-64/beg.l" starting from line 32. If the checks were successful, it should next print "Initializing memory". Otherwise, we should see "ERROR: CPU does not support long mode" or "ERROR: CPU has no local APIC". Normally, all those messages are not visible, because the boot is so fast that they are overwritten quickly. ♪♫ Alex -- UNSUBSCRIBE: mailto:[email protected]?subject=Unsubscribe
