Hi Gary,
Let me explain you what I would like to do first. May be you can suggest
me a better way in doing things. I would like to use ECos on a brand new
platform including a ppc8260 + an ethernet port + serial port, etc.
Looks to there is two ways of doing things. It is either I port the
RedBoot (which does not look too obvious to me) or simply do a port from an
actual template such as PowerPc Simulator. In the last case, however, I'll
need to use a JTAG to talk to my platform. Of course, I will also need to
develop new drivers for the ethernet ports and serial ports.
Does that make sense to you ?

We've never supported the FADS - the port was contributed long
before the virtual vector stuff was added.
You'll have to write the virtual vector support code for that
platform. Try looking at some other PowerPC platform for ideas.
If you'd like more direct help (i.e. contract support), contact me.
