Actually, the other reason why I though that u-boot for the SMDK2410 may
execute out of RAM is that the resulting elf file is linked to reside at
address 0x33F80000. The SDRAM on the SMDK2410 lives at address
0x30000000, so I made the logical assumption that u-boot was to be
executed out of RAM. Below is an objdump of the elf file.
If u-boot is to be executed from FLASH, would it be fair to think that
<_start> should be at 0x0 (where boot FLASH is living).

If u-boot is to be burned in FLASH, the first branch instruction will
cause it jump into uninitialise code in the SDRAM.
Should I change the linker configuration to link it to execute at 0x0?
