    Hi ,i was wondering if the on-board NOR have been tested with some low&high level software.
    Logic loader , u-boot & Linux
    TimeSys doesn't sound to offer the NOR support so i'm really wondering how we are supposed to be using the NOR that is on the SOM
    Thanks for any advices

    best regards
    Nico

    Hi ,
    with lolo , i'm only able to get info on the NOR flash
    losh> info mem
    Configuration of /dev/flash0:
    base_address: 10000000
    num_blocks: 64
    bytes_per_block: 131072
    has_chunks: 0

    is anyone aware of anything that can be loaded on it for some testing & XIP execution (u-boot,Linux kernel ?)
    Thanks

    Hi,
    Now I am using NOR for keeping u-boot and kernel. But I think, that using lolo commands for reading/writing files on NOR partition is not a good idea. It would be better to have possibility to read NOR partitions from u-boot and write from linux. I hope it is possible.
