Thank you Gary. Yes, I used floppy startup. Sorry I forgot to mention
that. Now I have downloaded the latest packages that include Realtek 8139
and it works fine. How if I want to add other devices now supported by the
latest linux kernel to eCos?
I also want to connect to a database server, e.g. MySQL/PostgreSQL. Is
there a project developing this one?
