Hi Simon,

I need a bit clarification from you. Does it mean that we should try
'lwip_eth' template only on real HW? I stub on 'left in' phrase. Did
your SLIP/PPP hack leave this tarball? Does it mean what tests of SLIP,
for example, will be useless just now?

And more, could you, please, post a reason ECM (the legal eCos minimal
configuration file for such a called 'Sequential' mode)? I hope you have
something for synthetic target, IMO, it would help to setup tests more
quickly, I see that real hardware will be to require the uploads and
debugging via serial (at the least for my target), because, I will need
to test the net tests. Well, that would be great and that will save a
time for "digging"/uploading.

If you did not save own ECM(s), the simplest question is, Did you use
DHCP or static IPs in your tests?

I'm going to try your lwip port on ARM-7 (LE) this weekend.

FYI: My first compile-stop did occur in simple.c, then I send a patch.

Thank you.

Sergei
