Hi
Some basic doubts
Redboot is the server process
GDB is the client process
We need to rebuild Redboot,inorder to enable
network support for it.
After this processes we can flash the eCos image to
the target mechine[one booted in RedHat]
is it the correct order?
anything missing?
is there any way to avoid this Client -Server
connection? i mean is there any means to flash the
image using Redboot alone ..with out using GDB
client?
thanks in advance
ALLY

If this is a PC, you can't program the Flash with it.

If you mean how to download an image not using GDB, yes, in the RedBoot
documentation you can find out how to retrieve images from the RedBoot
command line using TFTP (via ethernet), xmodem or ymodem.
If you mean just have your application boot directly, then the only way to
do that right now is to build your eCos application for "FLOPPY" startup
mode, and copy it onto a floppy the same way you did RedBoot.
