[ECOS] Floppy option

[ECOS] Floppy option

[Leandro Fanzone]

Hello, I'm a newbie with eCos, and I was experimenting a bit with the 
hello world application. If I compile it to run on RAM, it compiles OK, 
but if I change "Statup type" to FLOPPY I got the following error:

config_install/lib/vectors.o:/tmp/ccypm71S.s:1
296: undefined reference to 'hal_saved_interrupt_state'
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status

I'm on i386 under WindowsXP/Cygwin. Am I doing something wrong?
Thank you in advance,

Leandro Fanzone

Searching through the list, I have seen a couple of times this question 
asked and ignored before. If I'm doing or asking something stupid, 
please tell me so, but if this has been asked before, at least it 
deserves an entry in the manual or in a FAQ, or a kind answer here. If 
the answer is RTFM, please point me to the right path.
Thank you for your attention.

I've just tried building a FLOPPY startup configuration and it worked
fine.

Don't try mixing different configurations in the same build
directory. Keep one build for RAM startup and another for
FLOPPY. Otherwise you run the risk of getting things mixed up, which
is probably what happened here.
