Keyword for Google, to find information .. Redboot bootloader ..

http://ecos.sourceware.org/anoncvs.html
Redboot is part of 'Ecos' > > get 'Ecos', 95 MB ...

1) do the command
cvs -d server:anoncvs@ecos.sourceware.org:/cvs/ecos login

( The package 'subversion' must be installed for 'cvs' to work.)
1a) Type any password ......

2) and next : the command
cvs -z3 -d server:anoncvs@ecos.sourceware.org:/cvs/ecos co -P ecos

providing a directory 'ecos/' in /home/ravi_chobey/
.....

P.S.: The funny "smiley's" are 'colons' ( : ) , don't know,
how to avoid the "smiley's", but see the correct text in the
above link.
....

Thumbs up

Code:
make: Entering directory `/home/build/ecos-2.0/tools/bin/redboot_build'
vectors.o.deps:1: *** empty variable name.  Stop.
make -r -C hal/i386/arch/v2_0 headers
make: *** [headers] Error 2
make[1]: Entering directory `/home/build/ecos-2.0/tools/bin/redboot_build/hal/i386/arch/v2_0'

make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/build/ecos-2.0/tools/bin/redboot_build/hal/i386/arch/v2_0'
make: Leaving directory `/home/build/ecos-2.0/tools/bin/redboot_build'

I am getting above error,while making redboot.elf image during build process.I am going to convert that elf file to get the redboot.bin.

I am googling for it.If somebody has got this error previously,please help me out.

Regards,
Ravi
