Subject: Re[2]: [ECOS] building redboot with eCos eernel

Hello, Nick.
I wanted to use FAT with CompactFlash driver for updating the main
program(based on eCos kernel) from CF card. Probably I will be able to
implement FAT driver+high level disk driver+CF driver in read-only mode for
doing that.
Thanks a lot.
