Hi,

I have a very basic question and hopefully will answer this, 
when a processor reset happens, say as in case of IXP425 it starts pc
at 0x00000000 , Then how does it starts loading redboot from flash ??
or does as in my case redboot image is a ROM based, it just shifts it
execution to flash start sector and XIP ?

Cheers,
Sumit
