Is there any chance of extending the loader so that it can set the memory
size, rather than hard coding it into the kernel config file? This would be
quite useful for testing things which like a large amount of memory set aside
exclusively for hardware's use (I'm thinking of Utah-GLX's DMA buffers for
G400 cards here).
