Hello from Gregg C Levine
Perhaps I should have clarified my opening remarks. Redboot does build
correctly, but this is using the GUI based configuration tool, and the
resulting file, is indeed "redboot.elf". I examined the pulldown menus,
regarding your suggestions, and I can't find them. I also examined the tree
view displayed for the configuration file, and they don't seem to allow it.
Oh there is a box for my requested file name, and type but it is greyed out.
I'll keep looking.
