I have been working with ARM Integrator board with ARM 920T core module. I
have linked a hello world application with eCos default kernel. Later I
converted this image to Motorola S record format. I want this image to load
and run from RAM. Bootloader on target is bootMonitor. I have question, what
is relation among following four observations or any of these observations:
For a different bootloader be sure to disable CYGSEM_HAL_USE_ROM_MONITOR
in your eCos RAM build configuration.
1. My target.ld has following lines:
MEMORY
{
ram : ORIGIN = 0, LENGTH = 0x01000000
}
That tells eCos where RAM is. That doesn't mean it will start putting code
there, just that RAM exists.
2. While "M" command on bootMonitor prompt gives following message: "Record
addresses must be between 0x0000C430 and 0x07FD99FC"
That's where the program must be loaded. From the below eCos is loading to
0x40000.
3. and arm-elf-readelf gives following output:
[mohanlal@knuth test]$ /opt/ecos/gnutools/arm-elf/bin/arm-elf-readelf -S
a.out
There are 14 section headers, starting at offset 0x18bd0:
Section Headers:
[Nr] Name Type Addr Off Size ES Flg
Lk Inf Al
[ 0] NULL 00000000 000000 000000 00
0 0 0
[ 1] .fixed_vectors PROGBITS 00000020 0184c0 000140 00
0 0 32
No A flag so not loaded. So ignore the fact it say addr 0x20.
[ 2] .rom_vectors PROGBITS 00040000 008000 000040 00 AX
0 0 1
Starts loading here.

4. My arm integrator manual tells following memory map
REMAP S1[1] map to
0 0 bootROM
0 1 flash
1 x SSRAM
You don't say what S1[1] is in this context.
