[ECOS] REDBOOT INTERFACE through serial connection

[michael shiloh]

this is a long shot, but are you sure
of correct polarity of the serial port
cables (rxd/txd, cts/rts, etc.)? i once
saw such an error with exactly your 
symptoms. swapped the normal cable with
a null modem (crossover) cable and it 
all worked. we waved our hands and 
theorized about crosstalk and backwards
driven transistors and so on and went on 
with our work.
