Hi,

Where in the memory kernel is located in the boot time?
During which exact phase of the boot, and does it actually matter?  And
physical or virtual address?

(Hint:  If you're not the bootstrap that unpacks the compressed kernel
into memory, or the code that sets up the ASLR code, or are trying to work
around an issue with a hardware device that insists on taking certain
physical addresses for itself, you probably don't really care where the
kernel is....)
