Hi,

in setup_physicalmemorymanagement(), the line
PhysicalManagedInfoStart = (PhysicalKernelEnd+0x1000)&(~0xFFF);

Is PhysicalManagedInfoStart going to contain the start of the loaded
.linked section in memory?

Hi :)

No, this address is behind the (physical location) of the .linked and 
.linked_data section in memory.
Its the place where i write (or wrote, i think this should be removed as 
it makes no sense to copy the information from the variables to another 
place in memory) some information about the physical memory setup (e.g. 
the map count etc)

I will remove that part...
