This idea was mentioned by Grant also, thanks for that, I did not have
such a idea :) Did you forgot the attachement?

:) I will read it again.

Yes, I agree, I will try the script thing tomorrow.

ok

Staring a XIP Kernel lasts longer on my board, I don't know exactly why.
I have the strange feeling my system does not full bursting.
I see the ADV signal after every ~6 BCLKs and there should be exactly 15
more BCLKs to see, where the system should really burst. I think the CPU
cancels each burst after the first valid read Datum.

Thanks for the links, I will read this stuff today.
