MOD5441X EFFS STD flash settings example

[cbyrne]

I'm trying to format the voluminous 32MB flash on the MOD5441 with an EFFS STD file system. My fs_mountdrive call failes with return code 3 ("not enough memory"). I cooked up a MX289GL256F.h file (the chip on board) based on examples for other modules but not sure what I did wrong. I'm using NNDK 2.6. Has anyone done this for the MOD5441X?

There is a configuration problem with the MOD54415 monitor.
it set the chipselect mask for the flash memory to the wrong value.
Submit a support request and we will get you the code you need to fix this.

I am also trying to make the EFFS-STD example work for the MOD5441x and NANO5415. NNDK is 2.6. The MOD54115 card is Rev 1.5

Does this card rev contain the fix mentioned and is there MX289GL256F.h file availble for the EFFS-STD-HTTP example? Is the same issue present for the NANO?

In other MODs I have linked with StdFFile.a.

In the c:/nburn/lib directory there is no StdFFile.a. It appears to be replaced by SFNFatfile.a and/or LFNFatFile.a. Which is/are applicable for on flash file systems?

Thanks!

I'm not sure where your library file went... Can't you reinstall the tools and check again?

Also, if the fix you're asking about is the one Paul mentioned it is a software fix, not hardware, and no that issue is not present in the NANO.

Hi Dan,

Per your suggestion, I just reinstalled the MOD+NANO5441X NNDK v2.6

I am not seeing an StdFFile.a file. Is this something I need to build after install?

Here are the contents of the nburn/lib directory:

Hmm... What is the full build tag for your install (located in the release_tag file it /nburn)? Did you install from a saved/cd copy of the installer or from a fresh download of the tools?

Dan,

Thanks for helping me out!

dev@esc-11m32pgoydk /cygdrive/c/nburn
$ cat release_tag
Rel_2_6_0_026

This is from the CDROM I received with the NNDKs last week.

Mark,

It appears to be a serial key issue with 2.6.0_26. I don't know the exact cause, but I see two solutions:

1. Download and install the version available from the support site. It appears that is a different build number and does install that file.
2. Update to the 2.6.2 beta. I have verified that 2.6.2 installs correctly using standard platform keys.

Thanks Dan. I opted for the 2.6.2. beta. Now in /nburn/lib is see the StdFFile.a library
