Looking at GDT it looks like that all physical memory is mapped to 
linear space and it should work correctly... Then I tested it on real 
computer to make sure it is not vmware problem and I got visual test 
image what I assumed...

Does anyone know better solution than making floppies and booting on 
other computer?
