this should be done as early as possible unless want to set or copy those values again from old to new.The value is really unimportant
if decide to map it with BAT.
ADS manual say this should be 0x0470-0000 with no obvious reason.
At least it is not mandatary.My pilot board cannot read hwconfig
from flash(it took me much time to find this before learned it from Motorola web site),the default IMMR after power on is 0x0f00-0000.
I choose to map it to 0xf000-0000 with BAT.

Any other board ? I know there is one from EST with no FCC.
