[ECOS] RedBoot with eCos question

my hello-world eCos application don't starts from i386 PC's floppy (file 
loaded from floppy, screen clears,
cursor blinks in upper-left corner, and nothing more happens). 
CYG_HAL_STARTUP = FLOPPY in ecos.ecc.
i don't sure this should work at all.
So, i should use RedBoot, right?

Then,
is it possible to add eCos-application code to RedBoot image file, then boot
with this image from i386 PC floppy, and to use RedBoot scripting to
automatically start this application from certain address ?
If so, how i can combine RedBoot with eCos-application ?

All i want: create stand alone bootable floppy with eCos application, which
automatically boots and starts.

Please give me right direction, and excuse me for stupid questions.
Thanks.
