Subject: Re: [ECOS] Can I assign the offset of code start in redboot.binwhen using startup from ROM
Date: Thu, 07 Jul 2005 12:00:00 -0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <024701c582eb$a18cc590$016ffea9@stevencheng> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1120732804.30301.64.camel@hermes>
Hi Gray,
I configure eCos with configtool.
Step:
1) Select Template "Cogent PowerPC 8245" and Package "RedBoot"
2) Configure Startup type "ROM"
3) Import packages/hal/powerpc/csb281/current/misc/redboot_ROM.ecm
4) Build code
5) burn install/bin/redboot.bin (and check the content of redboot.bin)
Question:
1) Does the rom image be burned with redboot.bin
2) Does the code start from the _start in the vector.S for startup type
"ROM" ??
Thank you for your help ~~~
/Steven
After executing the command "powerpc-eabi-objdump -h
install/bin/redboot.elf",
The result is as following table:
