DBGF: No debugger attached

[wiki]DBGF: No debugger attached, waiting 1 second for one to attach (event=100)
1.Stopping the VM![/wiki]

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Hi my friends :D
I am a new member of this forum and this is my first topic [-o<
My question : I've developing a simple OS with C++ and ASM Language in Linux Mint and run my OS on VirtualBox .
In Interrupts part when i want run my OS i get a this error : ((DBGF: No debugger attached, waiting 1 second for one to attach (event=100)
1.Stopping the VM!))
:oops: :oops:

Welcome! Since you're new here, I recommend reading this post.

This means your OS has crashed. If you scroll up a bit, the log will tell you more information about the crash, which might help you locate the problem.

There isn't anything else I can tell you without seeing more of the log or your source code.

Thank you for your recommendations :wink: . finally, I debug my code and Find it ,
My Error ---> Mr. GDT :mrgreen:

The GDT code :

Code: Select all

GlobalDescriptorTable::GlobalDescriptorTable()
    : nullSegmentSelector(0, 0, 0),
        unusedSegmentSelector(0, 0, 0),
        codeSegmentSelector(0, 64*1024*1024, 0x9A),
        dataSegmentSelector(0, 64*1024*1024, 0x92)
{
    uint32_t i[2];
    i[1] = (uint32_t)this;
    i[0] = sizeof(GlobalDescriptorTable) << 16;
    asm volatile("lgdt (%0)": :"p" (((uint8_t *) i)+2));
}

        // 32-bit address space
        // Now we have to squeeze the (32-bit) limit into 2.5 regiters (20-bit).
        // This is done by discarding the 12 least significant bits, but this
        // is only legal, if they are all ==1, so they are implicitly still there

        // so if the last bits aren't all 1, we have to set them to 1, but this
        // would increase the limit (cannot do that, because we might go beyond
        // the physical limit or get overlap with other segments) so we have to
        // compensate this by decreasing a higher bit (and might have up to
        // 4095 wasted bytes behind the used memory)

        if((limit & 0xFFF) != 0xFFF)

for idt.base i think you should provide a *pointer* to your idt table. i think you should use "&" before DescriptorTable but not sure.
