Hi Chris,

Stable tarballs can be found on our ftp server[1] - git access to the
very latest and greatest is available here[2].

For PowerPC we relocate to the highest possible RAM address, so no we
need to probe RAM before we can relocate.  Also I would think that we do
not even get to the relocation but hang in the probing phase.  You
should really hook up a JTAG debugger and find out what's wrong.

Best wishes
