hi. im using the MAXII with PFL ip to configure S4GX device. the flash device is numonyx 256M flash. 

i am able to program the flash & load a sof file using the JTAG if to the S4 but when i try usung configuration using the PFL - no success. 

im using the FPP scheme - burst mode.

i also think there were some issues with sof2flash in 9.1, you'll want to use 9.1sp1 or 9.1sp2. you should be able to find a solution that has the details
