Re: [ECOS] Intel Strata Flash TE28F128J3 Problem.

[alfred hitch <alfred dot hitch at gmail dot com>]

Hi,
If I am not wrong .. 
IXP425 based boards can have only 16Mb per chip select on expansion bus . 
which would mean u have 256 MB on different chip selects ??

Could that be the reason and how / what did you change to make this
256 instead of standard 16 MB which comes on IXdp425 boards (wasnt it
,, dont remember)

Cheers,
Alfred
