We haven't seen any issue with the 2.6.22 boot decompressor. Which of the four (fs, gs, ldt, or tr) were proving problematic and why?

It was tr that was affecting Workstation, since we boot through normal BIOS path, and only a 16-bit task was loaded at this point.


Ah. Maybe we didn't have an exit while we were in long mode with the 16-bit tss, so VT didn't notice the illegal combination.
