Re: [ECOS] To: Ricardo Andrino about eb40A

["Marcelo" <kenji at navcon dot com dot br>]

I did the ecos-trunk-full.tar.bz2 download.
Then: bunzip2 file.bz2
Finally: tar -xvf file.tar

What else? Configtool doesn,t show me eb40a as Hardare option
(Build>Template...)

Hello,
I am working too with this board but not with JTAG. The ADS und Multi are
development enviorment but ecos is another thing.It is a real time operating
system and allow you to develop your applications with real time
requirements, threads, timers, mutex etc,etc.Once you have ecos correct
installed you should go to the configuration tool. Ah!! The ecos2.0 version
doesn't support the EB40A, only EB40 and the memory layout, the peripheries
etc are different, so you have to install the last snaptshot
http://www.ecoscentric.com/devzone/snapshots.shtml
which contains the HAL layer for the EB40A.

Follow the documentation to configure ecos, templates, packages, start-up
etc,etc and important Redboot.Redboot is a boot program will allow you to
run the ecos applications and download an image on the Flash and
debugging.Redboot must be installed in other flash area than Angel.Angel
will not be deleted.You have to change a jumper to do that( all of that can
you read in a lot of documents of redboot). Redboot was made over ecos and
that is why all is easy when you install it.You don't need angel anymore.I
had a lot of problems at the beginning without redboot but once i have
installed it i had no more problems (but a new problems come again!!!).

I suggest you to take a lot to the documentation for the EB40,EB40A boards
and ecos general
http://sources.redhat.com/ecos/


If you have more questions keep in touch with my.

Mucha suerte!!!
