The 4GB Address Space thing is one of the topics proposed as thesis at my university. They need it for Virtual Machines or something. I have to do one and thought this might be quite interesting. I have some experience with kernel programming but not with Linux - and I don't know much about Linux internals as yet. So what I need to know is whether those modifications are rather comprehensive/complicated or not and whether it is feasible to get finished within 4 month...
