ah, I think I found the datascheet, go to

        http://www.viatech.com/en/products/processors/c3/specs.jsp

then click on "Datasheet (Samuel 2)" what gives you:

        http://www.viatech.com/en/downloads/datasheets/processors/c3_samuel2.zip

so far I see:

        3 - Page Size Extensions (4MB) 0

whereas the x86_32.S seems assume 4MB pages support.
