I was thinking along the same lines but decided that this is not the
correct solution but only sweetening the fall ;)
We should concentrate on creating a correct linker script so that the
entry point ends up where we want it to be, namely at
STANDALONE_LOAD_ADDR.
Can you have a look at this and maybe solve the problem for good then?
Thanks!
Detlev
