I'm still using an old version of PTXDIST that only supports the 64MB and 128MB Mini2440. I recently bought a 256M Mini2440 and would like to work on it without having to use a newer version of PTXDIST. Will it work if I, create two new files in the configs directory platformconfig-NAND-256M.dat barebox-NAND-256M.config and update the accordingly? I tried it but when I select the new platform "ptxdist platform configs/platform-friendlyarm-mini2440/platformconfig-NAND-256M.dat" I get the following error: ptxdist platform configs/platform-friendlyarm-mini2440/platformconfig-NAND-256M.dat error: Couldn't verify that 'configs/platform-friendlyarm-mini2440/platformconfig-NAND-256M.dat' is a valid platformconfig file. If you are absolutely sure, please add '--force' to ptxdist's parameters, e.g.: 'ptxdist --force platform configs/platform-friendlyarm-mini2440/platformconfig-NAND-256M.dat'
Old PTXDIST (64M and 128M only) new Mini2440 (256M)
The 64 M and 128 M versions differ in the NAND flash layout. That is why two configurations are required. The 128 M and 256 M NANDs do not differ in their layout. You can use the 128 M configuration for your 256 M as well.
Ok, thanks. But is the size of the memory not defined somewhere? OR Shouldn't I define the size of the memory somewhere?
The 64M NAND has another pagesize the NANDs with 128M and above. The total amount of memory is not important.
