6.4.1 Rules
There are a few things to remember when entering a MOTLoad command:
z Multiple commands are permitted on a single command line, provided they are separated
by a single semicolon (;).
z Spaces separate the various fields on the command line (command/arguments/options).
z The argument/option identifier character is always preceded by a hyphen (-) character.
z Options are identified by a single character.
z Option arguments immediately follow (no spaces) the option.
z All commands, command options, and device tree strings are case sensitive.
Example:
MVME7100> flashProgram –d/dev/flash0 –n00100000
For more information on MOTLoad operation and function, refer to the MOTLoad Firmware
