PXA255 MSCx[2:0] setting?

I saw the MSC0_VAL in PXA255 initial code & tried to found how to calculate the best setting for PXA255 with Intel P30 Flash, Yamaha YGV628.
The RDFx, RDNx, RRRx registers are difficult to understand why the value of them came from.

For P30 Flash:
I found the Application Note 768 (Intel Strata Flash Memory(J3) to Intel PXA270 Applications Processor Design Guide). This document mentions the RDFx, RDNx, RRRx came from Intel PXA270 clock speed & flash read/write timing. So, that's it.

Which files to add to repository?

Which files to add to repository?

As programer, we need to know the purpose of every file in our project to have fully control.
This document is about the files of Visual C++ & embedded Visual C++ which need to be put into our version control.

The Intel P30 Flash with Windows CE 4.2 FMD driver

1. I found the jflashmm could write correctly with P30 Flash. So, to fully understand the code of jflashmm could help me to know how to modify the CE driver.

1-1. modify the dbpxa255.dat (the memory map part)
1-2. use the Flash_891c_2_32.dat (the P30 series flash have 4 x 32K Block + 255 x 128K block)

the CE side:
2-1. to know the inside of FMD driver(Intel Strata) comes with CE 4.2.
2-2. to modify the strata driver to fit the P30 spec, especially the mechanism of block lock & block arrangement.

Found two interesting books...

While web surfing, I found two interesting books, Car PC Hacks & Mapping Hacks. These two books are related with my current job, the Smart Phone & PNA developing. So, I bought these two books. Maybe could give me more idea about my design.
