running code out of sdram *could* fail, unless you were very careful. if your system was just using the sdram as buffer type space, and was fully aware of the actual memory capacity (rather than the available max capacity) it *should* work, as long as timing and init sequences were compatible between dimm's. --- Quote End ---
Well, the execution sequence would look like this:[list][*]Start from internal-memory booter
[*]Booter detects and initializes SDRAM.
[*]Booter loads real program from Flash to SDRAM.
[*]Booter jumps to real program.
[*]Real program uses rest of memory for buffer/heap/whatever.
[/list]Timing and init sequences... sounds like I need to look up some JEDEC docs just to be sure.
