Subject: Using CONFIG_PHYSICAL_START
Date: Wed, 16 Feb 2011 12:00:25 -0600 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <4D5C10B9.9010702@mentor.com> (raw)
Hi Kumar,
Quick question about the support for booting at a non-zero base address
(as committed here:
http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git;a=commit;h=37dd2badcfcec35f5e21a0926968d77a404f03c3).
Is booting from a non-zero address as simple as changing
"CONFIG_PHYSICAL_START" (assuming it meets the alignment constraints, of
course)?
For example, I want to boot from a non-zero address on the P1022DS. I
should just be able to change "CONFIG_PHYSICAL_START" to, say,
0x08000000, and it should work, right? Any other bits that need to be
done (i.e. U-Boot or device tree magic)?
