All,

I've been trying to install the bigphysarea stuff in
the 2.3.36 kernel. However, the memory management
has changed somewhat and memory_{start,end} no longer
exist. What's the new strategy for getting n contigous
pages at boot time (and a pointer to the start in the
kernels address space) ?

TIA,

-- Fred.
