[ECOS] i386 newlib

["McAtee, Kip" <Kip dot McAtee at SpirentCom dot COM>]

Greetings-

First off, let me thank everyone who has responded to my
questions, I appreciate it, a lot.

I'm able to build the redboot i386 examples, but they create a full
blown, bootable image org'd at 0x3000 due to:

target.ld:
MEMORY
{
    ram : ORIGIN = 0, LENGTH = 0xa0000
}

SECTIONS
{
     
    .vectors   0x3000  :      { . = . ; KEEP(*(.vectors)) } >  ram 
[snip]

I'd like to just build an app that I can download via S-Records
in order to use the redboot 'go' command.

Don't I need a crt0.o and a libc.a and it's cousins in my
cross-compiler hierarchy for this purpose?

Is there a way to create the libraries from the redboot build
tree, I can craft a crt0.o easily enough.

Thanks-
Kip

Nope. Have a look at the eCos documentation! Specifically the getting
started guide. Also have a look at the examples that can be found in the
examples/ directory of your eCos 1.3.1 installation.
