I got my hands on a Core2 Duo computer, that allows me to run this in
VirtualBox without problems.
On real hardware, it had hang on boot line however... but since that
computer still have a com port
I might be able to figure out why when I will have enough time.

Ok, first this talk about saving MSR is for AMD instructions
(SYSENTER/SYSRET), not for Intel SYSEXIT.
And indeed, the CPU simulated, a pentium 4, does not support SysEnter/SysExit.
I know because when I go to Machine menu, show journal I can see:
...
00:00:02.740255 VM: fHMEnabled=true (configu
Well,I never got understanding clearly these SYSENTER/SYSEXIT instructions.
Trying to google it a bit, I find this that seems to make some kind of
sense (but not too much honestly).
Basically, someone in similar situation was told it need to save MSR
(most particularly IA32_STAR MSR),
for using SYS
The subject sounds like Paul is running NOVA in a virtual machine. So maybe the
VM does not support those instructions.

Oh well, it seems I get the error only under Virtuabox (which is version 5.1.4).
I just burn a CD with that nova.iso, and after showing fast invalid
hints messages,
goes to the not handled by monitor video mode.
This is the same computer I tried under VirtualBox (Debian
