[ECOS] Problem Problem Problem (i386)

[Robby Ku <robbyku at yahoo dot com>]

Hi...
  
  Sorry for being a novice in eCos. 
But i really encounters a lot of problems here.

(1) I have been trying to build an Intel x86
development tools for Windows (follow the instructions
from
http://sources.redhat.com/ecos/tools/win-i386-elf.html).
I've got no problem in configuring and building
Binutils and GCC. But when I tried to install GDB, the
following errors appeared:

$ make -w all install CC='gcc -mwin32' 2>&1 | tee
make.out

make: *** [all-libiberty] Error 2

(2) I have installed eCos 1.3.1 on my WinXP PC. I have
also updated it through CVS using Cygwin. I have set
the hardware to i386 PC Target with default packages
under Build>templates. The path for Build tools and
User tools have also been set. But when I run test, it
showed me the following:

*** Process 3936 terminated (rc=2)
*** Killing process 3936 (TerminateProcess)
*** Process 2448 created "make tests -j1"
make -r -C hal/common/v1_3_1 headers

Hat/eCos/ecos-work/x86_build/hal/common/v1_3_1'

 Stop.
make[1]: Leaving directory `/c/Program Files/Red
Hat/eCos/ecos-work/x86_build/hal/common/v1_3_1'
make: *** [headers] Error 2

(3) Beside my WinXP Pc, I have a target device
installed/started up with RedBoot using a bootable
floppy. Now that I have the RedBoot> prompt, I have
been trying to load a file from the host, which is my
WinXP Pc. I have specified the ip addresses for both
host and local target in redboot. I was able to telnet
into the redboot target device using my WinXP host PC.
The problem was that i cant seem to load anything into
the redboot device through ethernet. I typed the
following command to try loading a file from reedboot:
  
  load file_name -b location -m tftp -h host_address 

I am using a static IP and tftp has been installed. I
was able to ping from redboot to host and vice versa.

Note:
System 
-Host: WinXP PC
-target device: a x86 SBC installed with RedHat 7.3 

Thank you!

Cheers,

Robby Ku
