[ECOS] EPXA10 Redboot problem

[Christian Mueller]

Hi,

I am using a modified version 2.0. this is outdated, but unfortunatly i 
have no access to cvs and i personally prefer to have a "complete 
version" basic.
Actually i am working with the expa1, but we've got the "big one" here, too.
The flash should be big enough, so it could be the address...

please check your ldi and header files (memory layout files)  you are 
using... that ones made me suffer, too.
please be sure to use the macro (i am sure you did) and that the 
"pkgconf/mlt_arm_arm9_epxa10_redboot.ldi"(something like that) appears 
in your ecos as memory layout file.
sould be found at ecoshal/altera ..... etc in this directory.
for further investigations, please poste this file....

hope it helps
