You can change the load address via the firmware menu: Administrative Options... ---> Modify the Configuration Settings... ---> Edit Configuration Variables step to the parameter "load-base" and enter a new value (decimal). One other problem is the this firmware version obviously does not provide residual data. So Linux will probably not find the PCI devices correctly.
