Subject: [U-Boot] [PATCH v2] sbc8548: document how to write main flash from alternate flash
Date: Mon, 16 Mar 2015 15:53:05 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1426535585-761-1-git-send-email-paul.gortmaker@windriver.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <550722CD.20009@freescale.com>
If you are running on the alternate flash in order to fix a
corrupted main flash image, it might be good to have the steps
for that documented as well.
Also delete any protect commands from non-active flash banks;
they are only required for the instances where you are writing
to the currently in use flash image.

[v2: drop protect commands from instances where we flash the non
active flash bank ; it wasn't protected anyway.]
