[ECOS] Newbie: More about flash

[Piteir]

Hi,

I have download my program using TFTP in Redboot.
I got this message:

Entry point:0x00020040 Address
Range:0x00020000-0x00050eb4

Please tell what does "Entry point" mean? and If I
want to save this into Flash Image System in Redboot,
what command I have to type (I have read the Redboot
manual-June version- but not clear enough)

Thanks in advance.



=====
Regards,
Piteir

'Entry point' would be the address that the program starts at when
you want to run it.

As for creating an FIS image, how can we make the document any
clearer?  Which part don't you understand?
  RedBoot> fis create PROG -b 0x20000 -l 0x303b4 -r 0x20000

When you are ready to run it from FLASH, do this:
  RedBoot> fis load PROG
  RedBoot> go
