Re: [ECOS] should Ecos re-run hal init code?

[Aaron Richardson <aarichar at cisco dot com>]

Its not causing me a problem yet.  However, I have a 21555 picbridge chip on 
my platform and if the init occurs twice on it it will mess up the settings 
that got put in there from the bios of the pc thatthe card is sitting in.  I 
will just have to figure out a way to not initialize this chip if it has 
already been done.  Ill start a new thread for this...

thanks,
Aaron
