reduced Linux kernel as a starting point for playing with this (the goal is
to eventually load the ELF executable 'vmlinux' as produced by 'make
vmlinux').
Anyway, the first problem seems to be that the kernel wou

Hi all,
I have a question about the multiboot standard:
according to the standard, when a multiboot compliant kernel is loaded
in memory it can read the amount of upper memory from the multiboot
information structure, and the upper memory is assumed to start at 1
megabyte.
Now, how can the kernel
