However instead of booting, the PC just said: "Error 28: Selected item cannot fit into memory". Fortunately this is covered by [http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=319837 this Debian bug]. It's still not been fixed, in the meantime you can grab this [http://www.smop.co.uk/files/memtest precompiled] memtest86+ ELF binary (not the usual x86 boot sector). You need to boot it slightly differently, my grub entry is: title Memtest (ELF - 4GB fix) root (hd0,0) kernel -type=netbsd /memtest boot Posted: January 4th, 2009 under Linux.

I used the mbr arch installed, grub 0.97, http://stackoverflow.com/questions/17223834/grub-error-28-selected-item-cannot-fit-into-memory-when-writing-higher-half-ker and edited the menu.lst to boot all os'es on the usb. SystemRescueCD provides an os with all kinds of "rescue" tools, but also error 28 other tools like GAG(gag.sourceforge.net/index.html), Memtest86, FreeDos etc, which can be booted from the bootloader.But, when I try to boot GAG, Memtest86, or FreeDos, grub gives me an error saying "error 28: selected item cannot fit into memory". According to grub, my lower memory is 630K, and error 28 selected my upper memory is about 3.4GiB. The GAG "kernel", is 24.7 kb, and the GAG initrd is 267.8 kb. This is not really arch related, I know, but still, if you can help me, I'd be very thankful. Google doesn't seem to help me on this one.

I have been following JamesM's kernel tutorials. My kernel code itself currently does very little - where I am struggling is trying to get grub to correctly load the higher-half format I've chosen to work with. The advice for doing that is described in this answer and I'm working roughly with the higher half bare bones. My test environment is bochs, with a grub floppy (0.97/legacy). To give you an idea of where I'm up to, I have a very simple do-almost-nothing "main" routine: [section .text] align 4 ; setting up entry point for linker start equ (start_vma - 0xBFF00000) ; entry point start_vma: push ebx mov eax, 0xCCCCCCCC hlt This technique gives me: bjdump -x kernel | grep "start" start address 0x00100000 c0000000 g .text 00000000 start_vma 00100000 g .text 00000000 start Then what I have done is to use the linker script to set the LMA (physical address load points) to 1MB, but the VMAs to 3GB, like so: OUTPUT_FORMAT(elf32-i386) ENTRY(start) KERNEL_MBOOT = 0x400; KERNEL_VMA = 0xC0000000; KERNEL_LMA_OFFSET = 0xBFF00000; PHDRS { headers PT_PHDR PHDRS ; mboot PT_LOAD FILEHDR ; text PT_LOAD FILEHDR ; data PT_LOAD ; } SECTIONS { . = KERNEL_MBOOT; .mboot : AT(KERNEL_VMA - KERNEL_LMA_OFFSET) { *(.mboot) } : mboot . = KERNEL_VMA; .text : AT(ADDR(.text)+ADDR(.mboot) - KERNEL_LMA_OFFSET) { code = .; _code = .; __code = .;*/ *(.text) *(.rodata*) } : text .data ALIGN (0x1000) : AT(ADDR(.data) - KERNEL_LMA_OFFSET) { data = .; _data = .;
