Yeah, I also recall Thomas or Gregory mention a 32b limitation in remap windows. But we don't need to waste addresses here And even if SIAA0000 is a concern because there may be target id >15 someday, we can still have IIAASS00 instead of IIAA00SS. I guess LPAE will not rise above 40b quickly ;) Sebastian
