Address Summary of System Memory
A 1 MB address space is available in Real Mode and up to 4 MB physical memory
on-board in Protected Virtual Mode.
After a system reset the CPU resumes operation in Real Address Mode. Code
at address FFFFF0h is executed next. Therefore, the BIOS area must be paged into
the upper 64 kB segment of the 4 MB address space. From there a far jump into
segment F000h is performed.
