My host environment is Windows NT / Cygwin. For evaluation purposes only, I am using the PC target with CYG_HAL_STARTUP set to FLOPPY. I found that the cross-development tools I installed (i386-elf) always generate elf executables (xxx.exe), which is not really surprising, given the names of those tools. However, the executables generated cannot be loaded directly on the target, so I used objcopy to convert them to raw binary format. This step is not described anywhere in the docs, and I therefore wonder if I am doing it the way it's supposed to be done. Any comments? ----------------------------------------------- Thomas Koeller, Software Development Basler Vision Technologies An der Strusbek 60-62 22926 Ahrensburg Germany Tel +49 (4102) 463-390 Fax +49 (4102) 463-109 mailto:Thomas.Koeller@baslerweb.com http://www.baslerweb.com
