Hi; I am not sure I am posing this question correctly, so please view it from the perspective of where I am trying to get to. I have recently taken up the "kernel" challenge. The text books I have all show a schematic of memory organization. First BIOS; Next kernel space; then user space; with various subdivisions within each space. Is there a program I can download, or by using sysfs, procfs a way, that lets me catch a snapshot of what my entire memory looks like -- address by address grouping (block)-- with some type of labels for each grouping (block)? I am willing to build a diagram for myself, if I can be assured that some strategy will give me everything. Even if it is a lot of data, it is a, sort of, one time thing. More in the seeing-is-believing line of thought than anything else. -- Regards Bill, Linux 2.6.24.4-64.fc8 Gnome 2.20.3 -- To unsubscribe from this list: send an email with "unsubscribe kernelnewbies" to ecartis@xxxxxxxxxxxx Please read the FAQ at http://kernelnewbies.org/FAQ
