1. NAND Flash with sysclk 66MHz(J16 on RDB closed, default)
make BSC9131RDB_NAND
2. NAND Flash with sysclk 100MHz(J16 on RDB open)
make BSC9131RDB_NAND_SYSCLK100
3. SPI Flash with sysclk 66MHz(J16 on RDB closed, default)
make BSC9131RDB_SPIFLASH

0x3800_0000 0x4FFF_FFFF DSP Private area
Out of 880M, passed onto Linux, 1hugetlb page of 256M is reserved for
data communcation between PowerPC and DSP core.
Rest is PowerPC private area.
Flashing Images
---------------
To place a new U-Boot image in the NAND flash and then boot
with that new image temporarily, use this:
tftp 1000000 u-boot-nand.bin
nand erase 0 100000
nand write 1000000 0 100000
reset
Using the Device Tree Source File
---------------------------------
To create the DTB (Device Tree Binary) image file,
use a command similar to this:
dtc -b 0 -f -I dts -O dtb bsc9131rdb.dts > bsc9131rdb.dtb
Likely, that .dts file will come from here;
linux-2.6/arch/powerpc/boot/dts/bsc9131rdb.dts
Booting Linux
-------------
Place a linux uImage in the TFTP disk area.
tftp 1000000 uImage
tftp 2000000 rootfs.ext2.gz.uboot
tftp c00000 bsc9131rdb.dtb
bootm 1000000 2000000 c00000
