RE: Re: hh.org bootldr almost working!

Hi
I have been working on the Flash issue and I have found a solution.
At the moment the code assumes an SL4 and the chips are mapped with the MMU
so that the bootloader has 32 MB contiguous Flash. It cannot yet autodetect
if it's CL4 or SL4.
I haven't tested much.

Who is willing to test? JTAG cable is mandatory!

What's the best way to test?

I don't want to download 32 MB JFFS over the serial interface
and bootldr seems not to support Ethernet download.

Regards
Walter
