The image I worked with clearly expects to be executed out of flash
memory (at pa 2000.0000).  I refereed to it as flash "simm" in my
previous message b/c it is a simm in Krups.  From what I know it's not
in SunRay (hence my initial comment about soldering a socket instead).
Sorry for confusion.

IIRC, microSPARC-IIep can boot from either - it's selectable.
Unfortunately I don't have the manual on my laptop so I'll check
details tomorrow.  As I said, the image I worked with wants to be in
flash memory (not flashprom at ebus).
