Hello

Some questions for which I would appreciate replies :

1) Which of these assertion is true:
* the 1st bank is between 700000 and 80000, the 2nd bank between 800000
and 900000
* the 1st bank is accesed by the low 16 bit, the 2nd bank is accessed by
the high 16 bit.

Alex code seems to imply #2 while Walter would go for #1. This is needed to fix
the code.

2) Why do intelFlashProgramShort do 

#ifdef CONFIG_IPCOM_32M
   offset = (flashAddress & IPCOM_CHIP2_OFFSET) >> 1;
#endif

while intelFlashProgramWord doesn't ?

Is it volunteer or is it a bug ?

3) Is having both CS0 and CS1 linked to having 2 banks? I was told only CS1
should be used for r/w on the skypad but there's this big confusion about 2
chips/ 2 banks that's filling my head.



Bien a vous - Best regards,
Guylhem P. Aznar
