[ECOS] Linking Problem i386 target

[Alex Mathews]

Yes, it is because of the size of the kernel.  You need to modify the
memory layout so that the image can fit.  With the windows tool there is
a nice GUI interface for changing th memory layout.  For Linux I think
you have to hand modify some files in
packages/hal/i386/pc/current/include/pkgconf.  I'm not sure if the
*.ldi, *.h, and *.mlt files have to be changed, or maybe just the *.mlt
file for ram.
