Dear Fillod
Actually, i do have a USB ram disk driver from the BSP of motorola, i
also located the read write code to the driver, but it is RAM ,not flash.
I have a guess and please fix me.
Can I use the functions in <include/linux/mtd/CFI.h > to
read/write/erase my chip (AM29PLD127 AMD CFI flash) DIRECTLY?
I think this can speed up my process if i need to rewrite the gadget
driver on M9328 chip
Thanks for helping
best regard
Mike,Lee
