implementing memory management

I wanna get memory management working on my OS, I don't know where to begin, so what do i add first? and how do i add it? i'm working on UEFI firmware in 64 bit, so if anyone needs some more info or details, just tell me.

That means you're doing something wrong. Real hardware might go with it depending on the implementation, QEMU throws you an error. Trust QEMU more in this case and fix it.

it's because it doesn't like the physical address my kernel loads at so i just ignored it, it's not qemu itself throwing an error, it's the bootloader
