[ECOS] What address will Redboot load the ecos ?

[ECOS] What address will Redboot load the ecos ?

[Surendra]

Hi,

I built the redboot.elf with settings as Template <i386 PC target>
Package<redboot> redboot_GRUB.ecm StartupType=GRUB. I updated menu.lst
and restarted my PC, It works fine, I get the Redboot> command prompt
at startup.

Then, I built the ecos tests with Template<i386 PC Target>
Package<default> StartupType=RAM. It generated some tests. I picked
stdiooutput to test.

Redboot> load -m disk hda2:/boot/stdiooutput
I did not find any error message, but the cosole locks, can't accept key.

I rebuilt ecos tests by changing the StartupType=GRUB. The tests work
fine from GRUB menu.(NOT using Redboot)

Here is my question...

Why the tests are NOT working from Redboot> prompt ?
What address will Redboot load the ecos tests ?

My doubt is that ecos tests have been overwritten on Redboot code
which is causing Reboot to stall.

Any suggestions ?

Thanks in advance
Surendra

You also need to enable CYGHWR_HAL_I386_PC_LOAD_HIGH for building  
tests which are loaded from Redboot loaded from GRUB. Or you need to  
load Redboot from Floppy.
 From the CDL:
	 description "This option enables building RAM applications
	              which have a start address outside of the area
		      used by redboot_GRUB."
