Re: Sandpoint problems

In message [ref] you wrote:
The sandpoint has at least two (sometimes three) flash parts. The one
containing DINK is on the PCI bus on the motherboard. One or two other
flash parts are on the PrMC card connected to the local memory bus. It
is normal to leave DINK alone and program one of the other flash parts
with an alternate boot loader. There are a series of dip switches that
switch between programming and booting from the various flash parts.
Unfortunately the documentation for the switch positions is very
confusing and unless you get it exactly right the board will not boot.
U-Boot comes with a file doc/README.Sandpoint8240 which explains  all
the required details.

Best regards,

Wolfgang Denk
