Msg Score: +1
 +1 Good Answer/Helpful		 #171717 - Function pointer
Responding to: ???'s previous message
Try:

((void (*)()) 0)();

This casts the value zero to a function pointer, then calls it. This will generate a 'call' rather than a 'jmp' but I would expect that your bootloader will reinitialise the stack pointer anyway, so this is not likely to be an issue.
