It can be either DDR or SRAM. It is not hardcoded in BootROM to initialize DDR.
This depends on the config words (CF_WORDS) in the CF_HEADER.
The Boot ROM code parses the config words and programs the addresses with data values
accordingly. The user may opt to initialize DDR and get the image copied onto DDR or 
configure CPC as SRAM and get the Image copied onto SRAM.
On 1010, the CPC size is not big enough to accommodate the U-boot image.
So, currently the CF_WORDS are for DDR to be initialized and copy the image on DDR.
