mc68332 embedded programming problems

Hi all,

I am trying very unsuccessfully to load my code from my Flash into ram,
and then jump to ram. I am finding 2 issues:
1. I can only load so many bytes to ram before the system resets.
2. when i make a jump to the code in ramspace, the chip wanders off
and gets lost, not knowing where it is going. I have examined ram
memory through the bdm port, and I find that the instructions are there
just before the jump, but it hangs up when I jump.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
