RE: [ECOS] Driver interface to eCos

Ok, got it working.  I couldn't find the target section before.  I found
it now though.

I added the package to my RAMSupport.ecc file manually since it wouldn't
let me from the config tool.  This is a pre made configuration.  New
ones do have it by default.  Anyhow, I get the warning below when
loading the ecc file.

C:\MyDocuments\eCosDevelopment\RAMSupport.ecc: warning Missing version
information for package `CYGPKG_DEVS_PCMCIA_EDB7XXX'.
