Application:  flash_test
------------------------
A series of memory tests will be performed on the linear flash device.  The
application saves the contents of the linear flash prior to running the tests
and then restores the original contents of the linear flash.

   CONFIG Switch Settings:  00010101 

1. Connect the Host PC to the ML501 (J1 header) using a PC-IV or
   Platform USB JTAG cable

2. Connect the Host PC serial port to the ML501 serial port using a null
   modem cable and launch a terminal program on the Host (eg. TeraTerm)
   with the settings: 9600 baud, 8-N-1, No flow control

3. Open the ML501 EDK project (system.xmp)

4. Launch a Shell window using XPS menu selection: Project > Launch EDK Shell

5. Download bitstream in shell window by typing: impact -batch etc/download.cmd

6. XPS menu selection: Debug > Launch XMD

7. At XMD% prompt type: cd microblaze_0/code

8. At XMD% prompt type: rst

9. At XMD% prompt type: dow flash_test.elf

10. At XMD% prompt type: con
