I think Robert refers to the fact that the memory map  as  documented
in the "Memory Management" section of the README is not valid for ARM
(malloc area etc are not below but above the U-Boot code, etc.).

There are other issues as well, as the fact that the code gets copied
to a fixed address instead of being relocated to the end of RAM.


I think we will fix this in our next ARM based project.

Best regards,

Wolfgang Denk
