Dear Paul D. DeRocco,
Thank you for your information.
I have some more questions:
Does endian affect the byte order of a STRING?
And I confirm that Redboot is compiled as big-endian and my machine is running big-endian because everything goes well except that problem.
So what will the point be?
Best Regards,
