Linux on NUMA-Q issues
The firmware puts the merged MPS tables at 511Mb - Linux only maps the first
8Mb at early boot time. Thus we crash, hard, in very early boot. I have a
one pointer fix to lynxer.elf to make it write out at 7Mb instead. If you're
really going to install Linux on your NUMA-Q,
email me and I'll sort it out.
I plan to try to fix this in Linux using set_fixmap() sometime soon, which will negate the need for this patch.
