Hi, I am doing some research on paging(intel and amd manuals). I got a kernel, its linked to be loaded at 0x100000.
My question is:
Its possible to map it to a different location(virtualy not physicaly), and continue using Grub to load it? I was able to map the kernel on 1:1(virtual=physical) only.

Thank you for your time.

P.S.
(Sorry for my poorly written English, this is not my natural language).
