Hi,

I'm stuck with mspgcc + F248 - so I just subscribed to this list to ask for some help.

I've got a product based on a F149. In the new design I've switched to F248. Now I've got the hardware, but no toolchain that supports the processor. Some weeks ago I've checked out the toolchain from the CVS and managed to add support for F248. Binutils and gcc tell me that they support this processor and I get my test code compiled and linked (I've got no clue if the generated code is correct though).

When I tried to flash the F248 with good old msp430-gdbproxy via a parport FET it tells me

error:     msp430: Could not read device memory (6)

Ok, so I need a new gdbproxy. I've been using the procedure in packaging/README-MAINTAINER.txt but the included makefile does not compile any gdbproxy. Yesterday I tried to check out the current version of the toolchain from the CVS because I thought there may have been someone adding support for new processors. CVS got stuck telling me:

cvs checkout: Updating msp430-libc4/include/msp430
cvs checkout: [13:34:46] waiting for root's lock in /cvsroot/mspgcc/msp430-libc4/include/msp430

I guess there's something wrong with the repository ...

So here are my questions:

- is there a list of officially supported devices? or do I have to compile and ask my gcc-binary? - are MSP430F24x already supported (as they are JTAG-devices, there shouldn't be any spy-by-wire related issues - or did something else change?)? - is there another (maybe official) way to build the toolchain (except for the way explained in README-MAINTAINER.txt)?
- where do I get a gdbproxy that supports the F248?
- could anyone please fix the CVS repository?


Thanx for your help!

Gunther
