I would like to link this to be placed in SRAM 0x800000 so that I can treat it like any other application I have written for this board so far, but cant work out how to make it link to RAM and not ROM.

Most likely you need to edit linkcmds file. This is linker script which 
specify how to link your program, and, particularly,
where to locate your program sections.

To better understand what to do, I'll address you to GNU linker 
documentation
(most likely, info files installed at /usr/share/info/ld.info*). It has 
comprehensive description
of linker script file format.

Hope this helps,
Victor
