So how do you hook up such a system to actual RAM or EPROMs to allow it to function? Somewhere there has to be an actual address generated.

And that address is going to be contained in a linear address space (possibly with some holes).
But that address doesn't have to be visible at the ISA level.
Code has to have addresses for calls and branches. Debuggers need to be able to control it all.
