- Subject: [ECOS] Redboot Built w/o Ethernet?
Hello list,
I’m new to eCos and I have been reading the documentation and trying to
get my first project to work.
The first thing I tried building with eCos was Redboot. I used the i386
PC target template (pc_v2_0) and the Redboot package. The build worked,
and I was able to put the executable on a floppy and boot a PC to a
Redboot prompt. But my current build has no network support. Redboot
does not recognize the command “ip_address”. When I view my Redboot.ecc
file (using configtool) I see that both ethernet packages are greyed out
(Intel 82559 and PC board). I also can not change the default IP address in
“Redboot ROM Monitor -> Build Redboot ROM ELF image -> Redboot Netorking”
How do I enable Ethernet?
Currently my build environment is Debian. Is anyone using any of the
BSD’s for their build environments? Any problems or quirks with this?
I'm using ecos-2.0. I have been reading both the redboot and ecos users
guide. I also have the ecos book by Massa.
I have about a 1000 more questions, ;-)
Thanks for your time
roger
