* [ECOS] Installing ECOS on IPAQ: Reflash Problem

I have an IPAQ 3660. I have a JTAG controller connected.

If I reflash the flash memory 0 with redboot_ROM.bin (downloaded from
http://sources.redhat.com/ecos/boards/redbootbins/ipaq/) it does not boot,
nothing on the screen and no serial port comms.

Do I need to split up this file or load it into a different address or is there
another file that needs to be flashed or loaded into ram?

Thanks

Leo

Successful: Loaded the Handhelds Bootloader and then sent the redboot_ROM.bin
file using ymodem to the 0x40000 address.

NOTE: I have the WinCE files I took off the IPAQ, but don't have Windowz
presently so couldn't use the way described in the Ecos reference document for
doing the install.

Thanks

RedBoot gets installed at offset 0x40000 (256K).  I'm not sure if you 
have a way to flash that directly or not.  Otherwise, you may have to
load up Win/CE and install it by "normal" means.

Have written the parrot boot file to flashmem 0 , but what is the memory offset
for memory block 1. When I do the detectflash it reports:
      Number of Erase Block Regions within device: 1
and:
        Erase Block Region Information:
                Region 0:
                        Erase Block Size: 131072 B (128 KiB)
                        Number of Erase Blocks: 64

The parrot.bin is 262K and the redboot_ROM.bin is 168k, but I need to
install/erase on a  block address, but what is it?

Thanks

Leo

Actually, that file is designed to go in the second FLASH block.
The first FLASH block should contain the original Compact "Parrot" 
loader.  Do you still have a copy of that?
