Re: Question: FAT file system for eCos and Redboot

Hello.

I'm a newbie to eCos development. I have read all messages in eCos mailling list and found out that
eCos supports FAT file system on x86 synthetic
target and somebody tries to support FAT file system for Redboot.


1. Is it possible for Redboot to support FAT file system
for loading application image? If it is possible,
how can I build Redboot image?


Yes, RedBoot already supports jffs2 and it shouldn't
take much work to support also fatfs.

2. Is it possible for eCos to support FAT file system
on x86 motherboard target, not using x86 synthetic target?
If it is possible, what should I do?


You need to write a device driver. There are two drivers currently in CVS,
the synthetic and one for memory mapped CF - you can start from
there or maybe somebody on the list has already written  an IDE/CF driver.
