I'm having a struggle with getting a block erase to work reliably on a=20
8Mbit sst spi flash part.  This is a bootloader application where=20
erasing the flash is part of the function of the bootloader.

I have reads working great, writes aren't needed (They're done by the=20
main program instead), but erasing the first block in the flash isn't=20
working very well at all.   I get an occasional successful erase, but=20
usually not.

I'm obviously doing something subtly wrong and/or violating some timing=20
spec, but I have no idea what that might be...  I've been looking for=20
some sample assembly code to compare/decipher since I don't normally do=20
SPI flash stuff in .asm, but I don't seem to be able to find one -=20
probably not using the correct google searches.

Can someone point me in the right direction?
