It seems that LinuxBIOS copies itself to _RAMBASE, which is 0x4000. Then it branches to 0x4000 into _start, which sets up the stack and calls hardwaremain. The address of hardwaremain from linuxbios_c.o is wrong. The address is not the Flash address and it's not the RAM address. Can someone explain how linuxbios_c.o is linked with RAM addresses?
