I have two strange problems with uboot-1.1.1 on my AT91RM9200DK.
1) It will not pass the "uncompressing image" stage from power up, but if I remove the "Boot mode select link", press reset, replace the link, press reset, the system will begin to boot.
sample output from problem 1)
** power on, nothing happens, press reset a few times to show a pattern

U-Boot 1.1.1 (Jul 27 2004 - 12:05:10)
U-Boot code: 21F00000 -> 21F14530 BSS: -> 21F189D0 RAM Configuration:
... etc ... can boot Linux fine from this point onwards.
2) The system starts with the first half of dataflash protected. I keep unprotecting it, but when I reboot it still remains protected!

Dataflash area is still read only!
