Hi all,

 

can anyone tell what is the size of internal ROM...on the EP9302

also what exactly is the size of redboot (I think its 256KB)...

the 7250 board has a flash ( by STmicro)...,if  the boot loader redboot is loaded into it, then what is the purpose of the 16KB catalyst semiconductor EEPROM...

 

Regards,

Anand.

The internal ROM is programmed at manufacture and not reprogrammable
by the user, it's also not quite big enough for something like Redboot.

The external "EEP! ROM" is usually flash, is much larger, and can be
reprogrammed at will.
