Hi all,

   I am asking this, because I came accross an issue with burst-mode at chip
select boundaries (on Netsilicon board). If two RAM banks are being enabled
using different chipselect then the data access (using burst mode) towards
the end of lower bank would provide wrong data - leading to all sorts of
unmanageable/reproduceable crashes.

   We wanted to hardcode the last 128 Bytes of lower RAM - as inUse/bad. Is
there any simple way to do it. OK OK - if not simple, then what is the least
complex option?

    Thanks in advance

Abhishek
