[U-Boot-Users] MIPS (purple) compilation problems.

Hi
I'm trying to port the U-Boot to Marvell board with MIPS (rm7000)
I see that after relocating to the DRAM the disassembly of the u-boot
shows me
that we jump back to the flash:
start.S: dis:
la t9,board_init_r lui t9,0xbfc1
addiu t9,20140
j t9 jr t9
I see that I get the same problem when I jump to printf etc.
maybe it is because I don't compile the code as PIC? Is there any
special compilation flag I should use?
Can someone please send me a disassembly of the U-Boot for any of the
MIPS board (purple, incaip or dbaux100).
Is there any special handle for relocating of the MIPS that is different
from the PPC, that I should take under consideration???
Thanks Ronen
