Error accessing DMI Tables, 0x50b bytes at 0x000f0700 /dev/mem mmap failed: Invalid argument In Linux this error can be caused by the CONFIG_NONPROMISC_DEVMEM (<2.6.27), CONFIG_STRICT_DEVMEM (>=2.6.27) and CONFIG_X86_PAT kernel options. Please check if either is enabled in your kernel before reporting a failure. You can override CONFIG_X86_PAT at boot with the nopat kernel parameter but disabling the other option unfortunately requires a kernel recompile. Sorry!
