[U-Boot-Users] Intel Strata Flash Embedded Memory (P33) on a MPC8xx board with u-boot 1.2.0

[SETTE AGOSTINO - technolabs]

Hello all,

I'm working with u-boot 1.2.0 on a board with MPC8xx processor and
Intel Strata Flash Embedded Memory (I28F128P33B) mounted.
Up to now I am trying to read the Device Identifier Information with the
Abatron BDI2000 but I am a little bit confused.
In fact I have the following output on the display

NEW_CCM_LC>mdh 0x40000000
40000000 : 0089 8821 0001 0001 0089 bfcf 0001 0001  ...!............

On the Intel Strata Flash Embedded Memory (P33) is written that at
offset 0x10 I should find thw CFI Query identification string but,
As you can see, I have them at offset 0x20.
Anyway, after the unlock of the flash and the erasing I tried to load a
u-boot 1.2.0 generated for the board and was loaded correctly
(I read back the u-boot label at the beginning of the flash).
The problem is that it doesn't start.
Does anyone know if there is a u-boot code available to manage this kind
of flash?

Thanks in advance
