Re: Problem with loader call using arm-elf-gcc

Hi Andrew and Bart
both of you are right. I plan to go for eCOS, but firstly I want to
build, run and debug a simple program. Just to make sure these tools are
doing what I intend them to do. Read: That I understand how to handle
these tools. Obviously, the task is more intriguing than I anticipated

Well, you could skip this and just use eCos. The eCos tools will then work, so long as you use them in the eCos way..... Do you actually need to understand all this to do productive work? If using eCos is your goal, to me it makes more sense to spend time learning about eCos, its API etc, than how the toolchain works in some situation you are not going to be using anyway.....

Andrew - you are right. I lost another few hours to install tools, libraries etc - only to fail when making my arm-elf-gcc. The recipes that come with the source packages are not exactly for beginners...
Have a nice weekend and many thanks Robert
