What I found is with 2.4.18pre4aa1 vanilla, when CONFIG_2G=y and
CONFIG_HIGHMEM=y, my system stops booting with:
Uncompressing Linux... Ok, booting the kernel.
With Hugh's patch, 2.4.18pre4aa1 will boot with CONFIG_2G=y
and CONFIG_HIGHMEM=y, which is good.
In my previous testing with the 1-2-3-gb patch, I always
had CONFIG_NOHIGHMEM=y.
Based on these findings, I think inclusion of Hugh's patch
is a good thing.
