Not by default, no.  I assume that you can change the cmd line passed
to the kernel by RedBoot if you have a serial console but I'm not
entirely sure.  I'm CCing Rod Whitby who probably knows.

Once we use move to using APEX as the 2nd stage boot loader, I assume
it will automatically recognize your memory if you simply added another
bank and pass the correct parameter to the kernel.  Marc, is this
correct?
