The removable device is a good idea. Once you get the process down, you should be able to build an image, program it into the part, install the part on the board and boot it. Make that image a serial loader that can program the other flash part if you must, or just run from the EEPROM during development. I agree with Jerry, JTAG is horribly slow and your time would be spent more wisely on a serial loader or the end application. I have written a couple of JTAG loaders that operate on the PC serial port using a Xilinx Parallel III cable. The last one requried 12 minutes to program 40Kb into flash. We use that as a last resort to load a blank board with a serial loader. Greg Griffes ** Sent via the linuxppc-embedded mail list. See http://lists.linuxppc.org/
