Dear Albert ARIBAUD,

Remember: this patch only applies to boards which boot from NOR FLASH! You can test it on other types of boards (NAND-based, etc) for regression testing, but nothing more.
Assuming the NAND loder does not load U-Boot to it's final location at the upper end of RAM, but - say - somewhere in lower memory, the standard relocation preocess will be running, so I think there should be no real difference between (such) NAND booting systems and NOR booting ones - or am I missing something?
No, you're not; instead of "but [you can test] nothing more", I should have written "but don't expect much more" -- NAND testers may find it works because yes, relocation does not differ whether from FLASH or from RAM; however I did nothing to make sure NAND booting (and other similar methods) works, whereas I spent quite some time to make NOR boot work.
Best regards,
Wolfgang Denk
Amicalement,
