Ralf,

Thanks for the info!  I still have a ocuple of question, hope you do not 
mind.

Is it named "sgi-ip27"?

The gap in physical memory is 0x10000000 - 0x20000000, but it is 
0x90000000 -
0xC0000000 in virtual memory because there is K1 segment.  So the macros 
such
as __pa() or __va() does not work, I think.  Started to wonder it might not 
be easy
as just changing the PAGE_OFFSET value.  Do you see?

cheers,
-hdei
