Right. Now that I understand the default mechanics, I can see that. In fact, I was expecting to see a difference "out of the box" between the .ldi file for Redboot and an application. That is part of what confused me originally. I figured that a ROMRAM Redboot would be able to load and debug a ROMRAM program by default. I'm used to having different linker .ldi file for "monitors" and programs. But I get it now. - Andy -- Before posting, please read the FAQ: http://ecos.sourceware.org/fom/ecos and search the list archive: http://ecos.sourceware.org/ml/ecos-discuss
