My main aim is to understand the workings of the kernel a little bit better. For this reason I would like to verify what is stored in the first few hundred memory locations. e.g in x202 the signature HdrS is supposed to be stored.

1. First of all, what kind of operation system you are talking about? Linux, *BSD, Windoh$ ? Linux Mdk9.1

2. What memory you want to reach: kernel space or userland space or even physical memory? Physical memory

3. Do you have root access to that machine? Yes, and I don't mind screwing it up. :-(

4. What kind of memory structures you have a desire to reach? Not sure of this question, but would like to read first few hundred bytes of my RAM.

If you will give the answer to this questions, I can help you with answer.
