[U-Boot-Users] Intel Flash CFI initialisation failure

[Miroslaw Dach]

Dear All,

            I am having the problem with Intel Flash TE28F640 J3C120 on my
avnet evaluation board (xilinx based with Virtex-4). I have compiled
successfully u-boot-1.2.0 and it run well without FLASH support.
Eventually I want to store u-boot in Flash but when I compile u-boot with
Flash support the u-boot fails during Flash initialization.

My Flash memory is:
type:    TE28F640 J3C120  (http://www.datasheets.org.uk/datasheet.php?article=3266188) 
vendor:  Intel
spec:    NOR FLASH 64 Blocks 64 Mbits x8/x16
 

To support Flash memory I have configured u-boot with the following settings:

#define CFG_FLASH_BASE                     0xFF800000              
#define CFG_MAX_FLASH_BANKS                1 
#define CFG_MAX_FLASH_SECT                 64
#define CFG_FLASH_CFI                      1 
#define CFG_FLASH_CFI_DRIVER               1 
 
The u-boot was compiled successfully but when I booted it I have got the 
error messages when it came to the Flash initialization:

Does anybody have an idea what could be wrong?
