Hello all, I have a 5100 running the 2.4.2 kernel and want to use the onboard flash. With PPC_Bug, we are able to program the 16M area with a kernel and RAM disk image and boot. At the very least, I'd like to use some of the remaining flash area as a read/write area for configuration data. Ideally, I'd like the whole flash area to be a JFFS file system using MTD and the CFI interface.
Problem is, I am unable to get the flash to respond to any type of query. The MTD code fails to get a response to the CFI query. Other code that tries to perform a simple query of the chips Manufacture ID fails as well. I can read the data in the flash that was written by pflash but can't seem to get writes to occur. Anyone using the flash on a 5100 at all? Any ideas, code samples, help at all would be appreciated! Thanks, Rick ** Sent via the linuxppc-embedded mail list. See http://lists.linuxppc.org/
