Well, are you sure? The image is marked as XIP, but I have  to  admit
that  I  don't know what this means on ARM; but there seem to be more
things wrong - image  size  is  706  kB,  which  would  allow  for  a
compressed  2.4 Linux kernel - but AFAIK there was no support for XIP
in 2.4 fro ARM, and  especially  there  cannot  be  any  XIP  from  a
compressed image.

I guess the main problem  is  that  this  is  no  plain  code  but  a
compressed image despite the header information; and if the load / EP
addresses are correct is yet another issue.

Best regards,
