Any idea?
Thanks in advance again!

Hi Fernando,
I too had the same problem with later versions of configtool, along
with my "tar blocksize=20" error. I instead resorted to installing it
manually by renaming it to a .tar.gz file, decompressing it into the
ecos/packages directory, and then appending the pkgadd.db to the
ecos.db file.
Everything seems to work just as it did when the patch installed
through configtool properly
Did you say that you actually got the EPXA1 board to boot eCos with
the sample Hello World application? And does this imply you have a
working redboot image?
No, It was another "hello" application. I am not able to make eCos
application run if I make a RAM
configuration and directly download the application into the RAM of the
EPXA1,... i think it is because
there is no .init stuff... :-(
I also tried to load redboot, but till the moment i had no success. I
cannot compile a ROM configuration
of redboot since it seems that it miss some .ldi or .h files for ROM
configuration in the EPXA1 package.
Did you compiled redboot with this package? I also doubt about the
steps that i have to do later with
quartus tools, but i think they are somehow mechanical (generate .sbi,
.sbd files and merge them with
the redboot.hex generated, isn't it? Any help (as many detailed as
possible) would be quite valuable for me.
Regards,
Warwick
I hope we can help us much as possible to get this board running eCos
quickly,...i am getting
mad! :-D
Thanks again Warwick and to the rest of ecos users in advance!
Kind regards,
