ROMRAM startup is where the program initially starts in ROM and pretty
much straight away copies itself to RAM and runs from there. Other ARM
HALs support it, just not the E7T yet. To add it, at a minimum you need to 
add a new memory startup type, different from ROM or RAM.

The best way to find out about it is to look at other HALs. The ebsa285, 
edb7xxx, at91 and integrator HALs all support it. Search those for 
"ROMRAM" and look at their ROMRAM memory layouts (in the include/pkgconf 
subdirectories of their packages).

Once you see what's required for them, you would then know what to add to 
the E7T HAL.

I have no idea, sorry. I don't know anything about BSL.
