  29. mmw 0xb800d860 0x0042c7ff
  30. 5. Then, from BDI:
  31. erase 0xB0000000
  32. erase 0xB0008000
  33. erase 0xB000C000
  34. erase 0xB0010000
  35. erase 0xB0020000
  36. prog 0xB0000000 <u-boot.bin> bin
  37. 6. Power off. Restore the original S2 switch position:

  46. Implementation Notes:
  47. ---------------------
  48. Due to the RAM/flash bus arbitration problem the suggested workaround
  49. had to be implemented. It works okay. On the downside is that you
  50. can't really check whether 'erase' is complete by polling flash as it
  51. is usually done. Instead, the flash driver simply waits for a given
  52. time and assumes that erase then has passed. This behaviour is
  53. identical to what the VxWorks driver does; also, the same timeout (6
  54. seconds) was chosen. Note that this timeout applies for each erase
  55. operation, i. e. per erased sector.
