Hi again,
and thanks all for the answers...
Well, seems i was unable to give you an idea what I really needed, pity:)
My only problem (at this stage) is regarding those nesty flash stuff. As for building, downloading, debugging etc these are pretty easy. And why really I've asked for help, coz I do not have the target board yet and i can't do any tests for now, i just want to make sure u-boot can be adapted for my target.
Ok, specific questions are: as in my board's booting flash is different from the original ixdp and i do not keep anything in this flash do i (ok, u-boot) need to recognize it at all? why?
as my second flash (OS, fs etc) is DOC, what shell I add/modify/remove to make u-boot to understand this guy? and... do i understand it correctly - if i want doc commands to work i need the previous step be done?
sorry if the questions are lame, i'm really noob here... |-:)
Thanks, Ara

Hi all,
I'm noob in hardware, flashes and I need some help to porting u-boot to our customized ixdp425 hardware.
This hardware contains a small CFI compliant bootable flash for u-boot (512kb) and another one 64 Mb DiskOnChip flash for OS, FS and programs.
I've read readme and the online manual. I have some basic knowledge about the things and some guesses what to do. However these are only guesses without any confirmation. I do not want go through tries and failures way.
Anybody familiar with those things please give me some advices where to start the porting or whatever might be useful...
Any help is greatly appreciated.
Thanks, Ara
P.S. Btw, the doc/README.ixdp is still missing. Kyle? :)
