Hi

I am trying to load my progrm into a low part of the virtual memory, so
i can load a noter program into the normal part and execute it in a thread.
Your right i can't use execve() so i will have to find a nother of
loading the program, and running it, but i still need to relocate my
program into the lower part of the virtual memory.
