Because the software person told me that's where it had to be ;). I was
under the impression that's where it went, my mistake. Looking at the BLOB
source, I see the KERNEL_RAM_BASE to be defined @ 0xc0008000, so perhaps
that's where it should be.

Custom SA1110 hardware, not a commercially available product (yet).

A modified version of BLOB (it retains the location where images are place
in RAM so wherever LART needs them is where I would too).

Well the issue was that my toolchain was out of date (waaay out of
date) and lacking decent access at the moment I wanted to avoid large
downloads (20meg toolchain, 20+ kernel source, etc).

Our hardware almost boots a 2.2.12 kernel for which I used the LART
config. I get the "Uncompressing .." and then "Booting the kernel" but
nothing afterwards. Since I haven't altered the memory map I figured an
"off the shelf" kernel would function, am I wrong?

Also I wanted to know does the SA1110 JTAG Flash burner depend on any
Assabet specifics besides the obvious SA1110 + supported Flash part? I
tried the software(Linux executable) with cable I built with no success;
the JTAG Burner from Keith & Koep almost works but does not seem to
program the flash part. We are using a supported Flash part (The
StrataFlash 128J3).

Thanks,
Vasant.
