[ECOS] General Reboot questions

[Hendrik Meiring]

Hi, 

Through the redboot documentation I understand that only the Flash, serial
and ethernet drivers are "supported". Is this due to the fact that the CLI
only makes provision for these or is there another reason. 

Would it be possible without too much effort to add a CAN driver with
entries in the vvt for other applications to use, or will redboot have a
probem with it.

Regards
Hendrik Meiring

For a boot loader that is about all you need.

I believe Uwe Kindler has integrated CAN with redboot. However i don't
know the details.

What exactly do you want to do? Make the console work over CAN instead
of RS232?

redboot donot support kernel, so those kernel independent driver can work 
in redboot, such as: stand-alone ethernet driver, 

none-io-interface flash driver, serial console driver.
