Yep, sounds like the same problem as mine. I find it weird that anyone
gets it going because every type of system I've tried it on I get the
same result. It's extremely odd. You would think that at the very
least the Screen/keyboard interface would be functional. Afterall,
those should be standard BIOS interrupt calls. Of course eCos probably
doesn't use the BIOS except to start.
Does the screen/keyboard interface work for you?

Hi,
I also have the same problem; the PC boots from floppy and
displays the startup screen on the serial interface. But I get no
response when trying to send keyboard strokes over the serial line.
Tried to switch serial ports. Tried to boot on 3-4 different machines
with the same result. Also tried two different machines as terminal (in
addition, with different terminal applications).
I also rebuilt i386-pc RedBoot using ct2 and the latest CVS without any
improvements (the same result as using the pre-built redboot.bin).
Seems like RedBoot doesn't read my serial line. It could be useful to
see which serial input RedBoot chooses.
Any suggestions?
