No problem, at least we now have the kernel issue with memory areas found
and patched. :)

I am going to look for a single-rank 2GB module to test, it seems they are
somewhat rare.

Also, does anyone know how to limit the kernel to using just 1GB of RAM from
2GB installed? I tried using the "memmap=1G$$1G"(double $ due to PMON seeing
a single $ as a variable reference) and "memmap=1G#1G" kernel parameters, but
they seem to be ignored. Did not check the source code yet.
