Hi all, I am using openBios code, but i m not able to load the zImage.treeboot using tftp or serial port. I am directly loading the zImage.treeboot using JTAG (RISCWATCH). But I am not able to find out the exact loaction where we should load the image and then from where should be start running the kernel. I have seen the stext loaction (0xc0000000). Can you guide me exactly where should I load this image.
