RedBoot Question


All -

I'm booting eCos with RedBoot and sometimes I need to abort the boot 
script. This works fine with the serial console (^C during the delay 
interval), but I also need to take control by telnet when serial comm is 
not available.

If I issue 'channel -1' at the RedBoot prompt I can then open a telnet
session, but upon reboot the hardware channel setting is back to '0'
(serial) and I can't take control directly by telnet.

How can I configure the "first client gets the console" behavior from hard 
reset? (I can reconfigure and rebuild RedBoot if necessary, but it would 
be easier if there is just a persistent 'fconfig' setting I could use.)

Hardware is MIPS / AP30.

TIA.
