Yes it seems the bootloader cannot access the page table and actually 
uses physical addresses or at least wrong addresses (it ends up writing 
to hardware regs).
This is likely due to OpenHackware being too simple, it was just 
intended to boot linux and some others.
Though it seems the Pegasos OF also had to be used in real mode... so I 
don't know.
