memory areas
============

Several barebox commands like :ref:`command_md`, erase or crc work on an area
of memory. Areas have the following form::

  <start>-<end>

or::

  <start>+<count>

start, end and count are interpreted as decimal values if not prefixed with 0x.
Additionally these can be postfixed with K, M or G for kilobyte, megabyte or
gigabyte.

Examples
--------

Display a hexdump from 0x80000000 to 0x80001000 (inclusive)::

  md 0x80000000-0x80001000

Display 1 kilobyte of memory starting at 0x80000000::

  md 0x80000000+1k
