This is probably not what you really wanted to do.  You'll need to build
a separate configuration just for the 'hello' program, like this (in a
directory just for this):
  % mkdir /tmp/ipaq_ecos
  % cd /tmp/ipaq_ecos
  % ecosconfig new ipaq
  % ecosconfig tree
  % make

Then re-do your commands, but use /tmp/ipaq_ecos instead of /redboot/ecos-ram

Why do you want to recompile RedBoot?
