I have warned often enough NOT to try to start U-Boot from RAM unless
you know _EXACTLY_ what you are doing.

You tried, and you failed. You kind of got what you deserved ;-)

Put U-Boot in flash, and start it from the reset entry point like  it
was designed for, and everything will be fine.




Actually I have to admit that I don't remember why the target address
was computed using "& 3fff" instead of a hard-wired  0x100.  I  don't
even remember where I got this code fragment from.

A similar assumption is buried in the code  relocation  stuff  -  see
llandre's  problem  when setting CFG_MONITOR_BASE to a value that was
not a multiple of 16 k.

We probably should get rid of this ASAP.
