Re: Re: Problem with adding new packages in windows configuration tool


I've tried the other way and it works too.

Update the ecos.db entry for "target pc",
Add CYGPKG_DEVS_ETH_RLTK_ISA8019AS  & CYGPKG_DEVS_ETH_NS_DP83902A
to the i386 target list of packages.

In this way once choosing the template and package, the two packages are
ready in use. Don't
need to add them and can keep "hardware"

thanks,

AL
