porting Wince 6.0 in PDA with 512MB RAM and 512MB flash

[Kumar]

Dear members,

is it possible to port Windows CE 6.0 in PDA(PXA320 based) with 512MB RAM
and 512MB NAND flash.

what is the maximum RAM and flash sizes Windows CE 6.0 support?

thanks

Hi,
Windows CE 6.0 support 512MB of memory to map your hardware. However for
NAND flash, PXA320 has a seperate NAND Flash controller and it will not come
under the direct memory mapping.So you can use 512 MB of NAND Flash.

if you are going to use more peripherals, you have to effectively map your
memory to the hardware to make use of RAM as much as possible.

Here is the sample i used. here i mapped 256MB Virtual memory to RAM(My RAM
size is 256MB) and the remaining i used for other peripherals.

See the OEM Address table,
