Hi,

We are using and appreciating the Flux OSKit. However, since documentation is still uncomplete, we would ask you some suggestions.

We need to link and execute the whole kernel at a given linear address (we don't use segments), with paging enabled so that we don't care where the kernel image actually resides in physical memory.

Is there an easy way to do this? Can we still use a multiboot compliant loader (we are currently using FreeBSD boot loader) or do we need a different one?

Thanks for the help,

Giuseppe
