Unfortunately, that doesn't seem to result in something that works
(relevant extract only):

[    0.000000] NUMA: no nodes coverage for 9MB of 65516MB RAM
[    0.000000] NUMA: Faking a node at [mem 0x0000000000500000-0x0000000fff0fffff]
[    0.000000] NUMA: no nodes coverage for 0MB of 65516MB RAM
[    0.000000] Unable to handle kernel paging request at virtual address 0000000000001d40

Any idea?
