Downloaded image of Redboot Not Working


Hi,

I have downloaded Redboot.uu nad Redboot.img from the site given here.
I followed the indtructions as given, to install Redboot
I use the Hyperterminal Utility to download the E7t
Two things

1.)Size shown of Installed Redboot on E7t is 37380 and that shown in documentation is 41960
2.) More importantly, The Redboot is not working as it should .I donot get a REdboot CLI, only jumbled characters and commands given in the Documnetation sre not working.
Infact A typical behaviour is that Keyboard KEys are not being echoed proeprly, E.g. when a is typed ,it is echoed back as 'q' or 'y' etc.
What should I do.

hi,
First of all thanx to Jonathan Larmour for ur response.

I am downloading RED BOOT.
What is ROMRAM Stratup. I tried to search the net. But found nothing. From where can I get to know more abt it
ROMRAM startup is where the program initially starts in ROM and pretty
much straight away copies itself to RAM and runs from there. Other ARM
HALs support it, just not the E7T yet. To add it, at a minimum you need to add a new memory startup type, different from ROM or RAM.

The best way to find out about it is to look at other HALs. The ebsa285, edb7xxx, at91 and integrator HALs all support it. Search those for "ROMRAM" and look at their ROMRAM memory layouts (in the include/pkgconf subdirectories of their packages).

Once you see what's required for them, you would then know what to add to the E7T HAL.

And Any Ideas on Changing ROMC0N0 not working on BSL.
Wll it work on RedBoot. This was my second question that day
I have no idea, sorry. I don't know anything about BSL.
