Hello,

Has anyone tried/had any luck with modifying U-boot
to access the full 32MB of flash ?

By changing kernel and NOR driver, I can partition 
and use the whole 32MB after booting without a problem
(see below) on our board (not using the DVEVM) so I'm 
sure it's not a hardware issue.

# dmesg
DaVinci flash: probing 16-bit flash bus
