Maybe I should correct into emulate eCos on WinCE and Linux.

I tried to emulate eCos,my image is eCos+Microwindows,from WinCE on IPAQ 
3630 by using the "OSloader" and it could run until 
the Microwindows Windows Manger (a green frame).
Then the IPAQ˙open a virtual keyboard, but it couldn't be use on IPAQ 3870 
in the same way.
I guess the reason is the memory. Because the RedBoot 
doesn't supported for H3870,so I want to emulate eCos on the Familiar Linux 
of IPAQ 3870. 

    When I have read the documents on web,it wrote that I must set the 
target to "i386linux" if I want to  
  use "eCos Synthetic Target".It mean that the emulation only c run on the 
i386 linux?  Are there any solutions about emulating on the
    ARM linux??

Thanks for reading and sorry about my poor English.
