Research direction
Start in kernel.c at start(), where sram_addr and flash_addr are assigned, and reproduce the hang with flash_addr set to 0x0ABCD000. Trace the example's memory layout and loading path to determine whether the regions overlap or conflict. Done means the example loads and runs without hanging at that address.

Description
Applying this patch causes the example to hang:
diff --git a/kernel.c b/kernel.c
index be748fd..07da912 100644
--- a/kernel.c
+++ b/kernel.c
@@ -18,7 +18,7 @@ int start() {
// (0 - 0x2000) are reserved by spike and the third page contains the
// host-target interface symbols defined in the kernel (0x2000, 0x2008).
uint32_t sram_addr = 0x12340000;
- uint32_t flash_addr = 0x81234000;
+ uint32_t flash_addr = 0x0ABCD000;
const void* elf_data = cm; // App to load.
It may just be that this causes two memory regions to overlap but by my calculations there is enough space.
