Re: RAM Images on AT91SAM7s256


Hi,

As Andrew stated, you will have to alter the startup code for the RAM
image to do the memory remapping so the vectors are located at 0x0.
Look at the ROM startup for reference.
I've done something similar on a AT91SAM7SE512, I used a BDI2000 JTAG
probe to load in my image though.

Regards,

Tom
