I'm afraid we still have a problem here... > - Changed value of CFG_MEM_TOP_HIDE from 256 to 4k so that memory > end location is on a page boundary This assumes a page size of 4 KiB, which is not necessarily true. As you know, we also support page sizes of 16, 64 and 256 KiB on 44x systems (even though so far this is only avaiable in arch/ppc). I don't know of a good way to fix this, but I ask that you at least document the new variable in the README and probably add a big fat warning for page sizes other than 4 KiB.
