Dennis, Since your running under VM can't you leave the virtual addresses in Linux the same in all images and let VM take care of the physical side? In other words just attach different physical addresses to the same virtual address across all you Linux images in the profile exec?
Just a thought but I can't see what is gained by having different addressing in each Linux image. No matter what Linux virtual machine your looking at ctc0 can always be, for instance, 0300 virtual but what is attached at 0300 by VM is a different physical address for each image.
