The target board already : having cmon boot loader on flash. Now I need to put my yamon boot loader : which I modified according to the requirement on the flash. As we know MIPS : have fixed starting address 0xbfc00000, how to change this address to other : address so that after power on it can enter to the new address (boot : loader). : If any one has some idea, please help me : Thanks in advance. You can't change MIPS' power-on address. It is hard-coded for a reason... If you put yamon on the flash, it should start instead of cmon... Warner
