[U-Boot] u-boot on ARM PIC?

Hi,

I'll soon start an ARM based project (at91sam9g45), and am looking into
booting options. I normally use PPC, so I'm not really familiar with the
finer details of U-Boot on ARM. I would like to use a failsafe setup
with 2x U-Boot images in NOR flash, and a mini bootloader (probably
at91bootstrap based) to decide which to use. For that to work nicely,
U-Boot would have to be PIC (pre-relocation).

I see there's CONFIG_SKIP_RELOCATE_UBOOT + CONFIG_LOWLEVEL_INIT. Can
someone confirm that U-Boot is PIC on at91 if those two aren't defined,
E.G. will it boot from any location in NOR?

Thanks.
