Dear Reinhard Meyer,
In message 4CA5821E.3070108@emk-elektronik.de you wrote:
I think it would be safe that a preloader loads u-boot to the very bottom of SDRAM. If the SDRAM is not at least double the size of u-boot, u-boot needs a diet ;)
This may or may not be safe. Some systems (for example, PowerPC) uses low RAM for exception vectors, and you definitely don;t want to mess with these.
Best regards,
Wolfgang Denk
