Can't get that far.New u-boot, from the flasher script, was locking up at 
printing the DRAM size. Older u-boot was able to start but usually froze at a 
command prompt. Now SPL does not get past MLO stage before locking up.

The more I think about it the more it seems like the problem is flaky DRAM that 
got progressively worse.

Original question was if there is some way that DRAM could be rendered non 
operational by the system locking up during start up with an SD card prepared 
with the flasher script.

 that I started having problems when I tried to update using
 your flasher script. u-boot would hang after printing DRAM
 and before printing the size of the DRAM. I am using
 x-loader at this point because it gets further than SPL MLO
 and because it seemed a little easier for me to hack in
 order to try to find where the issue is. If I manage to get
 this straightened out then I will be trying your script
 again.
 
 Just run "nand
 erase.chip" and ignore nand on the classic
 beagle's
 
 The flasher
 script hasn't been updated in more then a year and it
 more
 useful when users manually messed up
 the nand.  Now day's it's just
 easier and painliess to ignore the nand..
