Just to conclude, 1) Barebox issue was barebox configuration related. 2) NAND erase issue was fixed by switching to "prefetch-dma" or "prefetch-polled" Does the issue still happen with "polled"? If yes it might be due to too less GPMC timing value for Read/Busy signalling. Can you please send a patch with the fix? Thanks! > > Thanks for your help. > > Yegor cheers, -roger
