Hi,
My flash is 8 bit.I want to write my boot code into flash.I believe 
if I write an instruction in Code Composer it is by default in 32 bits(e.g,LDI,STI etc).How to
convert the instructions to 8 bit.I am using assemblylanguage. somebody has raised a similar
question for data to which it was answered use AND3 and RPTS.But will this work for
instructions?

Asha,

Your compiler distribution should come with a command line tool called
"hex30.exe".  This tool converts the byte codes into a form usable by
the on-chip bootloader.

The documentation is in Chapter 10 of SPRU035.

Regards,
Bill

The linker command must be told the memory is 8 bit, then it will insert 
the correct information in the first byte of the memory image to tell 
the loader the flash is 8 bit.

Here is an example file that I have used:

/*-------------------------------------*/
/*  command file to make a boot eprom  */
/*-------------------------------------*/
k3master.out	/* input file from linker */
-map k3master.mxp	/* map filename */
-i		/* intel format */
-o k3master.hex	/* output filename */
-memwidth 8	/* physical width of memory system */
-bootorg 400000h	/* base address of boot memory */
-cg 10FAh	/* configure bus for max wait states */
-e 0080484fh	/* execution address */

ROMS
{
   FLASH: org=400000h, romwidth=8
}
-boot

org, -cg and various filenames must be changed to match your requirements.

Details are in the C31X software manuals.
