Several people have now reported to me that it causes an error
when they add the package without a pkgadd.txt using the Win32
configure tool version 2.04. Putting a pkgadd.txt into the
tarball makes it happy.
The updated snds-current.epk file on my ftp site now contains a
pkgadd.txt file. You must use a recent (within the last 6
months or so) CVS shapshot -- it will not compile with 1.3.1.
NB: The HAL package assumes you have RAM at address 0x0000000.
My ftp site includes an example memory config program that
I download and run to re-map memory before I download ecos
applications.
