What I do (although I have not done it on the 405, but the technique is general) is use JTAG boundary scan - the .bsdl files being public - to drive/read the address and data signals and thus program the flash. But I am doing it using my DPS based toolchain, not sure if you can get anything you can use like this in the wintelinux world.

Howdy,

    I have a PowerPC 405GP Walnut eval board. Recently, by accident,
the flash which stores U-Boot is corrupted. Therefore the board cannot
boot now. I want to use the JTAG port on the board to rewrite the
flash with new U-Boot. I found many products for this propers, but
they are too expensive for me. It costs $1000-$3000... >_<  Eg:
BDI2000, Silicon Probe... What I really want is simply use JTAG
wiggler and a flash programmer to download uboot into flash. That's
all! Nothing else. It would be very pleased if anyone can tell me some
relatively low cost method to do so.
    Thank you very much.
