Re: ecos support for linksys wrt54g


Thanks Neundorf and Andrew ..

As of now, i am just looking to learn ecos, and my objective is to build and
compile some standalone programs. Apart from routing functionality,
are there any (known) problems that would prevent me from using ecos
to build standalone programs?

Also, on a side note, can someone suggest a device apart from wrt54g 
that i can use to experiment with ecos ?

Thx,
Raahi.
