dd if=some_file of=/dev/flashXY bs=ZZZk conv=sync
whith:
X = 'a' for the first, 'b' for the second flash bank, etc.
Y = number of the flash partition (1 = 1st, 2 = 2nd, etc.)
ZZZ = your erase block size
For instance, I can use
dd if=/tmp/ppcboot.bin of=/dev/flasha1 bs=128k conv=sync
to write a new PPCboot image to soem of our boards.
Be careful - /dev/flasha is the full 1st flash bank (unpartitioned).
The devices names are similar to those of harddisks.
