[André Stierenberg]

Hello,

CFG_LOAD_ADDR? What load adress is it? For the kernel or for u-boot 
relocated in RAM? And in the board-specific file config.mk, what exactly 
describes TEXT_BASE?

It's the default value for the "loadaddr"environment variable. It has
nothing to do with the relocation of U-Boot to RAM.

It's the address where the text segment of your image will start.  In
other  words,  TEXT_BASE+0x100 is typically the reset entry point for
your system. See cpu/*/start.S
