--- Comment #5 from Michael Müller <michael at fds-team.de> ---
Implementing \Device\PhysicalMemory is not so as hard as it might sound. Linux
for example offers /dev/mem which is basically the same as
\Device\PhysicalMemory. The problem is only that you need to have root rights
in order to access this device. This is not really surprising as you can read
the data of all mapped processes which is a major security risk. On Windows you
also need admin rights in order to access \Device\PhysicalMemory. However, Wine
is not intended to be run as root, so this is most probably not going to be
implemented.
