From mboxrd@z Thu Jan 1 00:00:00 1970 From: Gary Thomas To: Shaun Jackman Cc: ecos-discuss@sources.redhat.com Subject: Re: [ECOS] CS8900A Date: Thu, 31 Aug 2000 09:14:00 -0000 Message-id: References: <007b01c01363$9d64e8a0$6801a8c0@gray.internal> X-SW-Source: 2000-08/msg00381.html If you have eCos running on this board, RedBoot is just a step away. Implementing RedBoot will get you (amonst other things): * Network downloading and debugging * FLASH image and configuration support If this interests you, please feel free to contact me. I'd be happy to help.
