How comes you are using 0xa0100000 as load address? Did you modify the Makefile so that this address gets used? The default value used in U-Boot for ARM systems is 0xc100000 ...
I'm trying to download hello_world.srec to the memory and run it from the memory, as i do with the kernel. I didn't change any Makefiles nor any of the sources. Was it wrong to think that I could execute an image from the memory that way ?
Standalone applications are not position-independent. They are linked for a specific address and must be loaded to and started at the correct address.
Best regards,

But it's real. And if it's real it can be affected ... we may not be
able to break it, but, I'll bet you credits to Navy Beans we can put
a dent in it.
