Re: [ECOS] CS8900A and EB40A?

[Jani Monoses <jani at iv dot ro>]

To use the cs89000 package look at how the edb7xxx uses it
It includes the devs/eth/cl/cs8900 package 
look at the .cdl file the .inl files etc...
As for redboot 
ecosconfig new your_target_name redboot should suffice
no need to add the net package..redboot has its own small tcp/ip stack.
