External SPI flash memory is factory programmed with Das U-Boot—the
universal boot loader. Das U-Boot (U-Boot for short) is open source firm-
ware for embedded processors, including the ADSP-BF518F Blackfin
processors. U-Boot can load files from a variety of peripherals, such as a
serial connection, an Ethernet network connection, or flash memories.
U-Boot is executed at system reset, which automatically loads up another
application (such as the Linux kernel or a stand alone application).
U-Boot can parse many types of files on many types of storage devices.
U-Boot is controlled via a serial connection. The default setting is 56700
baud, 8 data bits, No parity, 1 stop bit. See
page 2-21
for information on the serial connector.
For more information about U-Boot, refer to the online documentation

SPI flash can be modified. For instructions, refer to the online help, exam-
