Hi,
I didn't enable buffer writes. Once I defined CFG_FLASH_USE_BUFFER_WRITE, all save operations would encounter an error. Actually, I noticed it was unaccptable to enable buffer write for AMD flash.
I guess you can implement CFG_FLASH_USE_BUFFER_WRITE for AMD style flash. The details is in the datasheet. It should speed up the programming anyway.
I use CFG_FLASH_USE_BUFFER_WRITE in my board with a Spansion S29GL032 Flash in 8BIT mode, and til now, it works perfectly.
This mode is the only one allowed in 8BIT mode, so I guess that it is acceptable for Spansion/AMD flashes
Best regards,
Alexandre
