Hello,
I tried to flash u-boot on my MPC8315E-RDBA Rev C board using kermit on my PC and I2C flasher embedded into the board. Kermit was able to transfer u-boot.bin just fine. However, after that flashing fails with the error "Flash not Erased". Here is the full console output:
------
## DONE binary (kermit) download
Serial Download Done
Flash Init Done
detected flash
...... done
Flash not Erased
The write error has occured and flash cann't be written
--------
I tried different u-boot builds with the same effect.
The DIP switch S3 is in ON-OFF-ON-ON (0100) position as was suggested by flashing instructions.
Can anybody help with this?
Thank you,
Ed
S4 is in default state - OFF-OFF-OFF-OFF (1111)
