Hello,
I am running eCos on an Atmel AT91 target and I have a question about ROMRAM 
startup.

As I understand it, when I have built my application for a ROMRAM startup and 
programmed it into the flash memory on my target board, the application will 
boot up and copy itself into the SDRAM and continue running from there.

The question I have is this:  is there an 'easy' way (i.e built into the config 
tool perhaps) of not copying certain areas of my application into SDRAM ?   My 
application contains several large firmware images for supporting devices which 
do not need to live in SDRAM at run-time and are just read once when they are 
transferred to the appropriate device. These firmware images are essentially 
part of my eCos application and are held as a large table array of bytes.

Anyone know of an easy solution for achieving this ?

DJ.
