- Hi...does anyone know how I can tell the kernel on 8.xx or 9.0 to
- only use 64MB out of 128MB RAM memory? I've seen clues that this
- can be done, with no info on *how*. I want to be able to directly
- access (via low-level assembler code) a *lot* of memory via
- absolute addressing and cannot, for various reasons, have it be
- part of the kernel's mapped area.
-
- Oh yes, this would be for 9000/8xx and 9000/7xx.
-
- thanks in advance,
