That what I've done myself. It works perfectly for my Spartan and
Virtex-4 based boards. Simplest way is to compile binary to run from RAM
always and make this BRAM based early mini-bootloader copy image from
flash to RAM and then start. Remember that start function is not in the
beginning of this binary (for PPC 405 it has offset 0x100 normally).

Can I have these? Also I'd appreciate to know where to get EDK project
for ML403 whose xparameters.h matches this u-boot patch.
Thanks,
Leonid.
