Hello Gary:
Thanks a lot for your reply! This turns out to be exactly what I've
been doing and the build has been working fine. The trouble I had
was not knowing which binary (.elf,.bin, or .srec) to run or how
to run it. This is really a documentation problem, and this issue
is not covered in the Redboot User's Guide, or anywhere else that
I'm aware of.
Anyhow, some list-archive-mining revealed that I needed to use
the "redboot.bin" binary (from the redboot_RAM.ecm build, of course)
and load/run it as follows:
Redboot> load -m ymodem -r -b 0x20000
Redboot> go 0x20000
This procedure actually does work, but is not exactly obvious.
At least it wasn't to me...
Regards,
craig vanderborgh
