I'm having trouble running CE from Flash. A non-relocatable image runs just fine when I deploy it to RAM from Platform Builder (BOOTME), but when I rebuild it to be relocatable, it doesn't run the same.

Here are the steps I followed (documenting as I went along):

In Platform Builder:

(This comes up twice during the build. I hit OK both times.)

Once built:

Copy WINCE500\PBWorkspaces\20050804_01\RelDir\LoCE_ARMV4I_Release\NK.BIN to CF card

Insert card into Zoom kit.

Power on kit.

Nothing shows up on the screen (Zoom 6.4 display kit).

In Platform Builder:
Platform | Settings
Environment
Remove the LOCE_RELOCATE_FROM_FLASH environment variable

Rebuild, following same steps as above.

Once built, instead of putting image on CF and loading, do:

ifconfig sm0 dhcp
ifconfig
bootme &

and Attach device from PB.

exec with same parameters as before.

Windows comes up just fine.



Am I missing a step to build / deploy the relocatable image?

Thanks.
