Hello,

I'm writing some graphics code (just for fun) and I need "legal" access to
the memory addresses below 1 mb.

The thing is, I know how to access those addresses (open /dev/mem, mmap, and
that's it), but I'd like to be able to alloc some pages so that my accesses
are correct and don't make the kernel panic...

Does anyone know how I could do that?

Thank you in advance.

Alex
