I could flash uboot using RVI debugger without any problem. Basically I load two uboot images onto RAM using RVI- one to run from RAM and writes the second image to flash. This is always succussfull. ONce the uboot is written to flash, and reboot the board, I get the error that the "flash is not errased". Today I tested with the top-of-git version. Still have the same problem. Anyone have experienced this problem before. Thanks, Shiju
