erasing lpc2292 flash problem

Development Boards MicroMod

Hi,

I used OpenOCD to program the LPC2292 internal flash. And I met a problem. I used the command flash info 0 to get the information about the flash, and it listed 18 sectors, from sector 0 to sector 17, which is exactly the same as the datasheet. However, when I tried to erase all the sectors with command flash erase 0 0 17, it always said:" invalid sector number." Then I changed to flash erase 0 0 16, and it was correct. What’s problem?

And I studied the source code(Re98), which I am using, in which it sets the sector number to be 18. Therefore it seems there’s no mistake with the source code.

Here’s my flash configuration.

The last sector is protected, because it contains the bootloader. You can’t erase that sector, nor can you program it, using the normal IAP routines, which OpenOCD uses, too.
