I don't understand why you use a static layout which  can  deal  only
with  a  few predefined sizes but needs such a lot of code. There are
other boards with more than one bank of  memory,  which  IMHO  handle
this  more flexible and with less "magic" and less code; please study
the sources - and read the README.

I don't think I will accept your patch.

Hi there! This is just a note from me, to you, to tell you, the  per-
son  reading this note, that I can't think up any more famous quotes,
jokes, nor bizarre stories, so you may as well go home.
