That is bound to *really* break at the slightest change to u-boot." Oh, I see. What you mean is "if people force the loading of u-boot at a fixed address which happens to be its current relocated address, a change of size in u-boot will break because the relocated address will change but the forced address won't. I was talking about a different thing, which is "if u-boot finds that the address at which it runs now is the address at which it should run, then it can skip relocation (copy and fixups)". > Best Regards, > Reinhard Amicalement, -- Albert.
