If linux virtual machine is defined with 64G in directory we got an

My questions are:
1 - Is this a limitation of linux s390x or Red Hat distribution?
2 - Is this a linux s390x bug or Red Hat distribution?
3 - How can I circunvent this so we can continue with POC (Proof Of
Concept)?
There is a chance that the initial ramdisk of your system is being
overwritten by the "memory map" that Linux creates at boot time. Try
increasing the ramdisk load address in your zipl.conf file (see chapter
37 in * for instructions).
