Well, thanks to Marc for pointing me to the correct solution for this
problem. There's already a commandline-option, that let you specify the
ammount of videoram to be remaped.
Just pass something like this to the kernel as part of the kernel command
line:
	video=vesa:vram:x
where x is the amount of vram in MiB to be remapped.

Bye,
Matthias
