Using CONFIG_PHYSICAL_START

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)? -- Meador Inge | meador_inge AT mentor.com Mentor Embedded | http://www.mentor.com/embedded-software
