<p class="MsoNormal">Xo and I have been using SF100s with AST2500 EVB. It works OK. The main gotcha seems to be that after writing to the flash with the SF100, it is left in a state that the AST2500 can't seem to boot from. Power cycling fixes it. I haven't
spent the time to investigate further. <o:p></o:p></p>

Yes. It works pretty well from a raspberry pi. I also have used a<br>
Flashcat programmer.<br>
<br>
You should make sure that the board is not booting from the flash<br>
module. For that you need to unselect the flash chip, CS0 on header J44.<br>

and one of your board perhaps. With details of what is around the<br>
flash.<br>
