SPI boot not working with xTIMEcomposer v14.3.2

Switched to the new xTIMEcomposer v14.3.2. Now I have a problem with the SPI boot. The Flashloader seems not to find an image to start. I checked the SPI flash data and they seem to be ok. Has this anything to do with this topic https://www.xcore.com/viewtopic.php?f=2 ... 109e0ec502 ?

Is this a known problem and how can I make it work.

Regards
Armin

Hi Armin.

How are you testing the SPI boot?

Is this on an XMOS board or a custom PCB design?

If custom PCB, which vendor and model of flash device are you using? Is the flash one of the devices supported by XMOS?

Have you tested a simple program like LED blinky to run from flash?

Hi,
this is a custom PCB. an old one and the application with XDE v11 worked for years.
Moving to the new xTIMEComposer v14.3.2 brought up the problem. Going back to v14.2.x made it boot again, without any changes.
Just xTimecomposer v14.3.2 wan't boot.
