For the i82801gx part in x60, I am not sure if it will support 16MB SPI parts as datasheet specifies decode registers for the top 8MB only.
Or was there already a proof-of-concept it works?
FWH_DEC_EN1Firmware Hub Decode Enable Register. Oops. you may be right. I just picked up 16 MB since it was the largest size SPI would support. For the moment, I guess I will have to restrict the images to 8MB
What does FWH_DEC_EN1 have to to with SPI flash? AFAICS it's for FWH flash, a totally different beast. Or put another way, why would that register restrict SPI flash size in any way? Regards, Carl-Daniel
