My personal preference for bringing up a new board is placing u-boot in RAM using the available information to setup SDRAM from the jtag tool (or, better, place the initial boot code the manufacturer give you in static memory, and jump to is with a breakpoint in the right place). While my debugger is able to write flash, I've always found it easier to do that from u-boot itself. Besides, I can fix my u-boot in RAM without the lengthy erase-reprogram cycles. If you work like this, it's irrelevant whether it is nor, nand or dataflash or whatever, as long as u-boot is able to manage it. hope this helps /alessandro _______________________________________________ U-Boot mailing list U-Boot@lists.denx.de http://lists.denx.de/mailman/listinfo/u-boot
