Error: not booted by a multiboot bootloader about cactusos HOT 5 CLOSED

Hello again, this probably has to do with a default optimization by your compiler. The kernel needs to be compiled without optimization otherwise some boot arguments get optimized out. The other reason is that it is way easier to debug code that is not optimized. The user library and applications can be optimized though. Perhaps in the future I will change this for release builds for example. Hope this helps!

I figured out a way to run CactusOS, I commented out the if statement which checks the multiboot header, and it succeeded!

Does everything then work as expected? Like it successfully boots to the desktop?

It does boot to desktop and then it page faults

I really advise using the correct compiler for compiling CactusOS. That is probably causing the page-fault.
