Newbe question about Redboot bootloader

When you made your first posting, I checked that what you were asking works in the 1.1 version of eCos, since that's what I was working on. It did. All I can suggest is that you may have run into the same problem with a lost change to the configuration.

It's easy to lose changes in configtool because of the way the TCL interface it uses works. When you make a change, it will not actually take effect while it is still highlighted in blue. You need to click away from the option to make it stick. You also need to remember to explicitly save your changes before rebuilding.

It's an annoyance which I'm sure trips up everyone when they first start using the tool...
