Do you mean the FLASH images (FIS)? The layout of the FIS directory can
be found in .../redboot/current/include/fis.h, with the directory being
stored (typically) in the last FLASH erase block. Since the images are
just raw images (there's no real file system involved), I'm not sure
what more you might need, except for FLASH drivers, but you should be
able to include those in your eCos program as-is.
