I don't know where this all ended yesterday.

You could modify the device tree created by psim/psim-gdb to add
more RAM or a second bank of RAM after the first 16 MB that the
linkcmds knows about. This is in psim.in:
/openprom/options/oea-memory-size 16777216
The bottom line is that you are reading the mpc5200 PowerPC manual for
addresses and that does not have any correlation to the memory map of
the "psim board" as defined by the device-tree.
0x10000 is 64k which is in use by the program or RTEMS.
0x100000 is 1MB and is also in use by the program or RTEMS.
0x1000000 is outside the memory map.
