I have a question, does /dev/mem wrap lgoically back to address 00000000 once it's
reached the end of physical memory?
I left the hexdump -C running all night and just checked and it's still running, and
the output file shoes that it's somewhere past
address:
110779f460 7c 7c 52 53 44 20 50 54 52 20 2e 54 62 56 7c 2e |||RSD PTR .TbV|.|
Should this be far enough along for you to get what you need? If so, I'll just kill
it, gzip the outfile, and send it to you.
