[U-Boot-Users] copy to flash ... outside available flash

[Thomas Ruschival]

Here are the commands I loaded the image with:
now I got a different error. It claim the flash wasn't erased?

1.) load image
loadb 100000
// here I am sending the image

## Total Size      = 0x0018cfc9 = 1626057 Bytes
## Start Addr      = 0x00100000

2.) Verify The Image
=> imi

## Checking Image at 00100000 ...
   Image Name:   Simple Embedded Linux Framework
   Created:      2005-06-07  12:59:15 UTC
   Image Type:   PowerPC Linux RAMDisk Image (gzip compressed)
   Data Size:    1625993 Bytes =  1.6 MB
   Load Address: 00000000
   Entry Point:  00000000
   Verifying Checksum ... OK

3.) erase the flash
=> erase 40100000 403FFFFF
.............. done
Erased 24 sectors


4.) Copying the image
=> cp 100000 40100000  18cfc9
Copy to Flash... Flash not Erased

What is this??  Now I can't even copy things into flash. After copying for
a while it brings this error.

Second attempt: istead of erasing 40100000 to 403FFFFF I erase what is
needed :
=> erase 4010000 +18CFC9
...... done
Erased 13 sectors

=> cp 100000 40100000 18CFC9
Copy to Flash... Flash not Erased

I have no clue what is going on here?
Any input for me?

thanks in advance
Thomas
