[En-Nut-Discussion] EIR & RAM-Test

[Harald Kipp]

F*CK! I forget to explain the most important part.

Before running make in nutapp/events you need to modify the linker
script. In nut/arch/arm/ldscripts/at91sam7se256_rom.ld Replace

 } > ram

with

 } > iram

at both places it appears (data and bss segment).

Also note, that the runtime library is still for SDRAM and it will
initialize it according to the EIR board. If you have different RAMs,
either modify

 nut/arch/arm/init/crtat91sam7sex_rom.S

and rebuild Nut/OS or do the initialization in your test app.

Regards,

Harald
