The idea would be to have a host based application or script that initiates communication with Redboot via serial or otherwise. The script triggers actions on the redboot end: load the new app image and write it to flash. Does this seem reasonable, or are there more elegant ways to do this? Any ideas and suggestions are very welcome. Thank you for your time. Ali _________________________________________________________________ Is your PC infected?
