This doesn't sound like it could be solved by using a different release of 
Base.  I'm not an RTEMS user, but I would suspect a problem with your 
RTEMS build system or the way in which you are creating the final binary 
to be booted.  Have you tested booting a very simple "Hello world" type of 
program, i.e. one that just does printf("Hello\n"); ?

Sorry, we can't make that available to anybody who was not a member of the 
original EPICS collaboration because it doesn't have all the license and 
copyright information in it, and as I said above I don't think that will 
help you anyway.  Base R3.14.1 should be released later this week, and you 
could try that if you really want to see if a different version will fix 
the problem.
