Thanks for the explanation. Does this mean this is a general problem for 
64 bit? And it is on the side of bootstrap? That sounds to me like the 
fix should be on that side as well. Why not change the 0x2d0000 address?
Anyway, so could I just insert a dummy module and set the 
overlap_allowed flag (or whatever the name is) in the source code?

I might give it a try but I'd rather prefer staying with a more 
mainstream one.

Thanks,
