Check mainboards/tyan/s2895/Config.lb:

##
## ROMSTRAP table for CK804
##
if HAVE_FAILOVER_BOOT
    if USE_FAILOVER_IMAGE
        mainboardinit southbridge/nvidia/ck804/romstrap.inc
        ldscript /southbridge/nvidia/ck804/romstrap.lds
    end
else
    if USE_FALLBACK_IMAGE
        mainboardinit southbridge/nvidia/ck804/romstrap.inc
        ldscript /southbridge/nvidia/ck804/romstrap.lds
    end
end

It will place data at 0xfffe0, but this should be possible likewise for 
0xfd.

What platform ist this?
