Hello Guys!
Anyone know, how i can install redboot on IXDP425 target?
I has vxWorks bootloader installed, and i need rewrite them or boot
redboot on them.
The flash is socketed on the IXDP425, so you can use a device
programmer. The alternative is to use a jtag based flash
programmer.

That's true!
But maybe anyone know how load redboot via vxworks bootloader?
Can i use redboot.bin for this purpose, or redboot.bin is for upgrade
redboot from redboot the self?
redboot.bin is just a raw binary image. It needs to get programmed
to the start of flash. I'm not sure about the vxworks bootloader
capabilities.

Hello
I heard from vxWorks guys - it isn't possibility to write image by vxWorks
bootloader and this bootloader don't configure hardware e.g PCI - Do you have
other loader?
Why not use the VxWorks loader to load a RAM version of RedBoot
(from ELF). Then use that to load & program the FLASH (ROM) version.
Mark - should this work? [it certainly does for most platforms]
I'm not sure. VxWorks may use a different mmu mapping than RedBoot.

Hmm... but we talk about vxWorks loader, not vxWorks operation system.
And i think that vxWorks loader doesn't use MMU?
