Dual SPI Flash

[Oliver Schinagl]

Hi list,

I noticed an intersting hack on the coreboot wiki: 
http://www.coreboot.org/Developer_Manual/Tools/Dual_Flash

It lists a neat trick to double stack two spi flash modules to make 
testing/developping/flashing coreboot easier. However there's no 
schematic or other information available on how to actually build this 
setup. Could the author possibly supply this extra information? Since 
not even the resitor values or switch connection is documented.

Thanks,

Oliver

I'm not the author but there is documentation at

http://stuge.se/m57sli/

for what is called the "simple" modification.

Resistor values are generally not critical and the switch connection
should be obvious after study of the flash chip data sheet.
