Dave, Thank you for your reply. E.g. I would like to write some new data into IC flash memory. So I was thinking about using JTAG. But for that I would need to know SPI a= ddress.=20 Do I understand well, that the only way how to find out the SPI address is = to debug the driver=20 or BIOS of that device? And/or Isn't there any other way how to write data into the flash of that L= inux embeded=20 device?
