I believe that's fixed. If your bootloader is placed there, No, it is not. Assuming we're talking about PowerPC systems only: it may be at 0x0100 on some systems, or 0xFFF00100 on others, orit may be configurable (for example with a jumper) to be either of these addresses, or it may be 0xFFFFFFFC on other processors.
