Actually no, I made the assumption that you have two 16 bit wide flash
parts, one providing bits 0:15, the other 16:31.  Most PPC projects end
up doing this.  The write 0x00600060 ends up sending a 0x60 to the flash
on the low bits and another 0x60 to the flash part on the high bits.
The second write of 0x00d000d0 likewise sends a single 0xd0 to each
flash part.

If your tool gave you a command called mw which had a usage somewhat
like:
    mw <size> <address> <data>
where size is b/byte, w/word, l/longword you might you might try:
    mw l 0x00600060 0xff000000
    mw l 0x00d000d0 0xff000000
Does that make sense to you?

PS: some people here have nothing better to do than whine about
    top-posting, safe yourself the grief and respond bellow the
    post.
PS: Technicaly this is not a Linux topic, I'm responding here
    because this does turn out to be of general interest.

Actually the comands should be:
    mw l 0xff000000 0x00600060
    mw l 0xff000000 0x00d000d0


BTW - you don't have to bellow the post, you can just type them quietly :-)
