Actually, the two use cases listed on linux4sam are: - at91bootstrap, u-boot, kernel in dataflash and rootfs in nand - at91bootstrap, u-boot, kernel and rootfs in nand See: www.at91.com/linux4sam/bin/view/Linux4SAM/GettingStarted Actually, the 9rlek, 9260ek and 9261ek have a 4MiB dataflash and the 9263ek doesn't have an embedded dataflash. I guess I'll change the mapping to still get 2MiB for the kernel. regards, -- Alexandre Belloni _______________________________________________ U-Boot mailing list U-Boot@lists.denx.de http://lists.denx.de/mailman/listinfo/u-boot
