Follow these directions completely for building RedBoot:
  % ecosconfig new pc redboot
  % ecosconfig import ${ECOS_REPOSITORY}/hal/i386/pc/current/misc/redboot_FLOPPY.ecm
  % ecosconfig tree
  % make

This will build "install/bin/redboot.bin" which is suitable for
installing onto a floppy.
  % dd if=install/bin/redboot.bin of=/dev/fd0 bs=36b conv=sync
