Configuring Ecos

Hi all,

I'm a new ecos user(nearly) so excuse any silly q's.

I have a Atmel AT91SAM7A2 dev kit with an ARM multi-ice jtag device.

I installed ecos and redboot in ubuntu linux and managed to get the configuration tool running. I am assuming that completing the configuration tools settings is my first step to doing basically anything(as I understand from the docs), but you have to specify an specific target. They have an ARM PID kit and an Atmel AT91 kit, but not the specific one I need. Must I choose one of these and just adapt the settings and if which would you choose, or must I "define" a new kit or something with alternative means?

Any advice welcome.

Regards

Hendrik Meiring
