+config RAMBASE
+ hex "Address of the base of RAM"
+ default "0"
+ help
+ Define the address that RAM starts at. On many platforms this is
+ 0, the base of the address space. And this is the default. Some
+ platforms choose to setup their RAM at other addresses within the
+ processor address space.

+config RAMSIZE
+ hex "Size of RAM (in bytes)"
+ default "0x400000"
+ help
+ Define the size of the system RAM. If you select 0 then the
+ kernel will try to probe the RAM size at runtime. This is not
+ supported on all CPU types.
+
+config VECTORBASE
+ hex "Address of the base of system vectors"
+ default "0"
+ help
+ Define the address of the the system vectors. Commonly this is
+ put at the start of RAM, but it doesn't have to be. On ColdFire
+ platforms this address is programmed into the VBR register, thus
+ actually setting the address to use.
+
+config KERNELBASE
+ hex "Address of the base of kernel code"
+ default "0x400"
+ help
+ Typically on m68k systems the kernel will not start at the base
+ of RAM, but usually some small offset from it. Define the start
+ address of the kernel here. The most common setup will have the
+ processor vectors at the base of RAM and then the start of the
+ kernel. On some platforms some RAM is reserved for boot loaders
+ and the kernel starts after that. The 0x400 default was based on
+ a system with the RAM based at address 0, and leaving enough room
+ for the theoretical maximum number of 256 vectors.
