the core is not in ROM, the address is taken from the code file. If this value
is not defined and the core is already in ROM, the PC will not be set before
starting the target. This means, the program starts at the normal reset ad-
dress (0x00000000).

Telnet client in "line mode", add this entry to the configuration file.
mode
