Which constraints were that? The remapping is done cause all the HAL code
assume everything starting from 0x0, right? Consequently when you execute
the code from RAM you want to keep you HAL code unchanged... please
correct if I'm wrong (as you can see, I not quite sure about these
issues...)
Thanks again,
