[U-Boot-Users] Re: Anyone has success with MX1ADS?

[Wai-Kong Sung <waikongsung@yahoo.com>]

I successfully downloaded the u-boot MX1ADS build thru redboot download 
to the board. Thanks, Geroge! :)

The only downside is the mx1flash is a windows executable and I am using 
Linux as my development environment. Any Linux equivalent of this mx1flash?
