Another thing I don't really remember is that BadRAM thing. When I fiddled with it [1], memmap [2] was already there, but for some reason I wanted to use BadRAM or maybe I was unaware of it. BadRAM wasn't present for the kernel I was using, so I attempted porting it to my 2.6.32 one. In the end I haven't really tested it, I guess, had to move on with other things. Now I remembered something! Some time later I tried contacting Rick van Rein, thinking that maybe he would be interested in a new version of the patch, or rather he could review it and I would learn something, but I never got the reply from him. I hope my attempt isn't too embarassing, yet can be interesting for someone, so I just published my mail to Rick with the attached patch [3]. Feel free to show me how wrong I was in my poor "refinements" of the original patch! I would be more than happy (even though I'm not into kernel now at all) to get constructively bashed about it.
