more qurries : executing from floppy


Hello,

This is with reference to the pdf:
	
	redBoot_eCos_ASOS_paper.pdf	
	
i have booted on the target system (Pentium IV Desktop PC)from 
the floppy containing the binary image of Redboot (redboot.bin).

1)
On issuing the "disks" command on the redBoot prompt it does not display the
fd0 (floppy drive), is it not possible to "load" and execute ("go") an 
executable from the floppy ?

2)
Can the host and the target systems be the same for running an eCos
application ?
i.e. can the build procedure and then executing the binary be done on
one and the
same system ? (for testing purposes) 
can booting from redboot and running an eCos application not be done
with a single system
available ?

-Rohan
