WM32    0x80000004  0x0000FFC0  ;CS0 start = 0xFFC000000
WM32    0x80000008  0x0000FFFF  ;CS0 stop  = 0xFFFFFFFF

No, I've done the porting for my board with the 1.1.4 version. I'll try 
to do the porting to the top of the tree.

mmh 0xffc000aa 0x9800

or

mmb 0xffc000aa 0x98

The output it's the same for both commands,

But, U-Boot is running properly from this flash. If the hardware was 
wrong could be it possible?
We have another board with the same schematics mounted with a spansion 
flash and we haven't got any problem. Could be a bug in the mounting 
process or is it a different behaviour of the flash accesing the CFI ?
