Ok, with a rebuilt image I can now issue the 'channel' command. Each
time I type 'channel -1', I get a new "RedBoot>" on my serial terminal,
but the problem still remains: I cannot issue commands from the serial
terminal - my keyboard strokes are just ignored in some way. Neither the
commands issued at the console are displayed to the serial terminal. The
only thing passed to the serial terminal is the "welcome screen" and the
output from 'channel -1', that is, "RedBoot>".
This problem is no big thing, I just wanted to start playing a little
with eCos and figured that this could be a good way to start.
Anyway, any other suggestions to this strange behaviour is of course
welcome.
