I was able to get Redboot to come up, but the amount of Flash memory recognized by Redboot is incorrect. I traced the source code in the Flash driver area, and realized that the current Flash driver does not really support the Intel C3 Flash, although the strata.h file comment area says that the C3 Flash is covered. The C3 has two Flash regions, 8 blocks of 8K bytes and 31 blocks of 64Kbytes. The Flash Query structure needs to include four more bytes to get the information about the second region. I am wondering if there is any new work done to support the C3 Flash. If there is, I would like to know more about it. Thanks, -- Wai-Ching Yu American Fibertek, Inc. 120 Belmont Drive Somerset, NJ 08873-1204 732-302-0660 ext. 34 wcyu@americanfibertek.com
