Hello,
I've written a small patch to test if relocation is working (at least as I have understood as it should work).
The patch is here:
http://lists.denx.de/pipermail/u-boot/2010-October/080798.html
This fials here with gcc 4.3.4 and 4.5.1 (and binutils 2.20.1). I currently have no other toolchain, so I can't test if that works with e.g. gcc 4.2.x.
The output I'm getting currently here (without DEBUG in board.c) is:
--------------------------------------------- Marvell>> g 0x700000 ## Starting application at 0x00700000 ...
