Some memory map page bug

Post by ~ »

It looks like there is a bug in this page:

http://wiki.osdev.org/Memory_Map_%28x86%29


Isn't this operation's result the following?

7FFFF-7E00=781FF

524287-32256=492031


That would mean that the size indicated for this memory area below 1MB should be (78200h) or 492,032 instead of 7FB00. Isn't it?
