As I wrote earlier today, I was stomping on OBP (the entry point
passed on "boot" is 0xf003381c).  Dump was consistent.  Before L1
entry is updated it was some part of OBP (forth names &c), and right
after L1 entry was written the box was extremely unstable, which is
not surprising (now that I know).
