This reverts commit f7a364631f2a8975ecca56668a19ee0a66c1ddcd. An iBook G4 (PowerBook6,5) was unable to boot when linking to the lower address. Revert back to 2MB.
Signed-off-by: John Ogness <powe...@ogness.net> --- I could not find any references about _why_ yaboot was moved from 2MB to 1MB. I did not bother to see how low I could get it on my iBook. If 2MB is too high for some machine, I can investigate to see how low I can go. This patch was tested using both yaboot-mainline and 1.3.17-4 in Debian/sid. The tests were only performed on my iBook G4.
