Title:
  boot.scr contains wrong kernel load address

Status in Linaro Image Tools:
  New

Bug description:
  The U-Boot bootcmd environment created by BoardConfig._get_bootcmd()
  uses 'kernel_addr' for the address to load the uImage, it should use
  'load_addr' instead. The current use of 'kernel_addr ' has the effect
  of loading the kernel to the address it will be run from, which U-Boot
  interprets as meaning the image is XIP and will end up trying to boot
  Linux by execute the image header and therefore crashing.

  This affects booting Versatile Express with U-Boot.

  I have attached a patch which fixes this.
