Ah, should have asked before. I've searched all over if this is 
supported and what I found was the note in the Release Notes in the 
Getting-Started document saying:
"*Programming of ColdFire Flash devices.* The Sourcery G++ Debug Sprite 
now supports programming
of internal ColdFire Flash (CFM) devices. Applications built using 
ROM-based linker
scripts are automatically loaded into flash memory when run from the 
debugger."
That was why I thought it should work. Anyway, just to be sure, would 
this work with the mcf52235 after buying another edition? And can I try 
it first with the evaluation version, or is this version also cutted 
(other that in use time periode)?
