Doing some research in stlinux site, I found this

For NAND Flash

In the case of NAND flash, the flash should be explicitly erased, prior to writing to it.
In the case of NAND, then most access operations need to be multiples of certain page/block sizes. For simplicity, the following code assumes that u-boot.bin fits in 256 KiB (0x40000). However, you may use smallest figures that are appropriately aligned.

  MB680> nfs $load_addr /export/u-boot.bin
MB680> nand erase 0 40000
MB680> nand write $load_addr 0 40000

Since the U_Boot variable "load_addr=0x80000000" , can I use these two commands as prescribed after the mtd0 file being loaded on RAM.

I'm trying doing my best , but still need help .

hi harry,
was vermutest du am offset 0x500000? soll da in dem flashlayout der ursprünglichen firmware nen kernel liegen? obwohl ich die kiste nicht kenne wäre das sehr ungewöhnlich

@solala: The memory layout of the Fortis HS7119 using Fortis stock firmware is this:

Fortis HS7119 L7.07 memory map

0x800000000 - 0x8FFFFFFFF 0x100000000  RAM

With loader 7.XX Fortis is back to flashing partitions at fixed addresses, IRD partition types 7, 8 and probably 9 are no longer flashable with a .IRD file.
