I have not tested and do not own a ngw100 but it is likely that it is still working. Avr32 in general has had very little changes in the past. I personally have access to a ngw100mkII, grasshopper and stk1002 board. They are tested from time to time. AFAIR there was no breakage in the last two or three years. I have to admit not all of these boards tested with 2015.01 yet. But I do not expect any surprise here. > Can I update the old existing U-Boot boot loader directly or > should I use FlashUpgrade tool from Atmel? > (http://mirror.egtvedt.no/avr32linux.org/twiki/bin/view/Main/FlashUpgradeUsage) I always do it directly or with my jtag ICE. It seems the FlashUpgrade is just some scripting to advise u-boot to do the update. I would prefer to do it for my own. > The existing version is: > U-Boot 1.1.4-at0 (Jan 3 2007 - 10:30:09) This is quite old. There where maybe a change of flash partitioning in between. This means that your existing environment partition may not be read in the newer version. I recommend to save the environment as a text file on your host before doing the update. best regards Andreas Bie?mann
