* Is Relocation forced?

Hello,
  I have relocatable binary set to "n"  and I load barebox into ram
exactly where it is supposed to be, but it still runs the function
"relocate binary"

  Is the option to not relocate barebox, not supported?

Why would I want it not-relocated?  Because relocate_to_current_adr()
causes an exception every time, and barebox won't boot.  And I can't
figure out why the exception occurs.

thanks,
-allen

Generally relocatable barebox is not enforced and barebox runs happily
without it. However, there are some combinations of PBL/TEXT_BASE which
really do need relocation support.

What SoC/board are you running? Could you post your .config file?

Sascha,
  I figured out the issue.  'scp' was not copying my new version..
and not indicating failure.
Once i deleted the old bin and copied a new one, i see it is running
without relocation.

Sorry.
