[ECOS] Redboot for Assabet goes silent

Hi,

since I'm not able to use Redboot via Ethernet, I'm very pleased
that uploading data via the serial line is now included in Redboot.
Since it is not built in in the prebuilt Redboot image (the one in
hal/arm/sa11x0/assabet/current/images/redboot_ROM.bin) I have to
build it myself. Building and flashing (using Jflash-linux) the
newly created image gives no problem at all.

However, when I use minicom to attach to the board or use Insight to
debug a program I get no reaction at all. The strange thing is that
when I flash the prebuilt image on the board, everything works fine
(except serial downloading :-( ). So I guess that it has something
to do with the configuration of the serial port, but I have no clue
at all. I built and flashed the redboot image as follows:

$ mkdir redboot
$ cd redboot
$ ecosconfig new assabet redboot
$ ecosconfig import $ECOS_REPOSITORY/hal/arm/sa11x0/assabet/ \
    current/misc/redboot_ROM.cfg
$ ecosconfig tree
$ make
$ Jflash-linux install/bin/redboot.bin

Any ideas???

Thanks in advance,
Martin van Veen.
