Hello Baruch, Yes, I already thought that this nandwrite command can be used for writing. But problem is I get the image via tftp and my RAM is to little to store it temporary. So I have to write it directly to flash. Can I combine this nandwrite and tftp in any way? I'm using busybox thanks -----Original Message----- From: Baruch Siach [mailto:baruch@xxxxxxxxxx] Sent: dinsdag 13 september 2011 13:44 To: Vanhauwaert Wouter Cc: barebox@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: Re: tftp to flash from linux Hi Wouter, On Tue, Sep 13, 2011 at 01:36:31PM +0200, Vanhauwaert Wouter wrote: > To update our platform from within a booted linux, we need tftp to > write to the nand-flash (another partition) directly. > Which one do I use? /dev/mtdx or /dev/mtdblockx?

Use the nandwrite utility from the mtd-utils package (there's also a Busybox version), and a/dev/mtdx. baruch -- ~. .~ Tk Open Systems =}------------------------------------------------ooO--U--Ooo------------{= - baruch@xxxxxxxxxx - tel: +972.2.679.5364, http://www.tkos.co.il - _______________________________________________ barebox mailing list barebox@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.infradead.org/mailman/listinfo/barebox
