MPC8313ERDB_33 is for booting from NOR, which is the default. The "66" targets are for an earlier version of the board that had a 66MHz crystal rather than 33MHz. > For I have no USBTAP, there are no way for me to flush either NOR Flash > or NAND Flash, so I am afraid if I install my u-boot to NOR Flash and > that u-boot cannot run correctly, my board would be unavailable. Your best option is probably to build MPC8313ERDB_NAND_33, and put it in NAND flash. Then you can change the board switches to boot from NAND, and if it doesn't work, switch them back to NOR which you've left unmodified. Once you have a working NAND, you can replace the NOR image, switching back to NAND if the new NOR image is broken. And of course be careful not to write to the wrong flash, and destroy your backup boot source. -Scott _______________________________________________ U-Boot mailing list U-Boot@lists.denx.de http://lists.denx.de/mailman/listinfo/u-boot
