[U-Boot-Users] How to configure the MPC8313ERDB to support 2x128MB DDR

Hi all,
I'm using a customized MPC8313ERDB board, which means we replaced the Vitesse switch with a second
Marvell PHY and we are using 64MB of NOR flash instead of 8MB.
Furthermore we added a second DDR RAM (additional 128MB) on that board.
I adapted U-Boot (v1.3.1) to support the 64MB flash memory and the second Marvell PHY. This works really fine.
But I got problems when adding the second 128MB RAM module.
I just thought I change the value of
#define CFG_DDR_SIZE to 256
But after that I see the 128MB of the first RAM module mirrored at address 0x0800 0000.
Therefore I guess there's more configuration necessary, of course there is.
I don't know where to set the DDRLAWBAR1 to base address 0x0800 0000 because I can't even see
DDRLAWBAR0 for the first 128MB RAM module. I found nothing in the MPC8313ERDB.h
Could anyone please tell me which defines I have to change or I have to add. Are there further changes necessary in the
board specific file sdram.c?
Thanks for any hint!

Did the second DDR RAM module use the other chip select? If yes, you have to enable the chip select for it.

not enough if you only change it.

If you are using the mpc8313erdb/sdram.c as reference, I believe the code auto-calculate the DDRLAW (256MB).
Could anyone please tell me which defines I have to change or I have to add. Are there further changes necessary in the
