[ECOS] Build Issues

[Anand Kulkarni]

Hi,
Env:
Win 2k, Cygwin, gcc 2.95.2, binutils - 2.10.1, i386-elf target, default
template

I downloaded the latest ecos sources with CVS. This was to get the Redboot
package.

When i try to build the package, i get the following error:
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
------------------------------------------------------
make -r -C hal/i386/arch/current build
make[1]: Entering directory
`/ecos-c/users/anand/esys/redboot_build/hal/i386/arch/current'
sed: -e expression #1, char 7: Unterminated `s' command
mkdir: too few arguments
Try `mkdir --help' for more information.
make[1]: *** [src/hal_misc.o.d] Error 1
make[1]: Leaving directory
`/ecos-c/users/anand/esys/redboot_build/hal/i386/arch/current'
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
------------------------------------------------------

As per some of the earlier posts I tried to look for the pattern
'replace sed "s/\\\\\/\\//g" with sed "s@\\\\@/@g"'

All occurances in packages/pkgconf/rules.mak were "s@\\\\@/@g", so did not
have to replace anything.
Those in hal/i386/arch/current/makefile, i replaced sed "s/\\\\\/\\//g" with
sed "s@\\\\@/@g"'

This did not help..... I get the same error as earlier.

Also, is redboot required so that i would be able to execute the tests that
were built (for the default version of ecos 1.3.1, not the latest from cvs)?
Iam new to this, so please forgive my ignorance! Are there any other options
to run the tests?

Thanks
