 Calculate relocation address
 --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 
-The next step is calculating relocation address for decompression if needed. First we need to know what it means for a kernel to be `relocatable`. We already know that the base address of the 32-bit entry point of the Linux kernel is `0x100000`, but that is a 32-bit entry point. The default base address of the Linux kernel is determined by the value of the `CONFIG_PHYSICAL_START` kernel configuration option. Its default value is `0x1000000` or `1 MB`. The main problem here is that if the Linux kernel crashes, a kernel developer must have a `rescue kernel` for [kdump](https://www.kernel.org/doc/Documentation/kdump/kdump.txt) which is configured to load from a different address. The Linux kernel provides special configuration option to solve this problem: `CONFIG_RELOCATABLE`. As we can read in the documentation of the Linux kernel:
