Hi,

We are trying to put EPICS on target running vxWorks 6.9.

We could build EPICS Base 3-15-6 for

CROSS_COMPILER_TARGET_ARCHS =vxWorks-ppc32

Now I want to use TFTP to load the vxWorks image at MVME6100

When I am trying to boot and load vxWorks image file but its not loading image and throwing error.

Following is the log of error on boot:

CPU: Motorola MVME6100-0173 – MPC 7457

Version : VxWorks5.5.1

BSP  version : 1.2/5

Creation data : Nov 4 2008, 16:13:29

Press any key to stop auto-boot…

Loading..

Error loading file : errno = 0x3d.

“User: test” is my ubuntu server’s user name and ftp password is ubuntu server’s password.

Is it wrong?

Do I have to check ~/WindRiver/vxworks-6.9/target/config/all/configAll.h file?

This is configAll.h file

/*Default Boot Parameter*/

#define HOST_NAME_DEFAULT “bootHost”  /*host name*/

#define TARGET_NAME_DEFAULT “vxTarget”  /*target name(tn)*/

#define HOST_USER_DEFAULT “target”  /*user (u)*/

#define HOST_PASSWORD_DEFAULT “ “  /*password*/

#define SCRIPT_DEFAULT “ “  /*startup script (s)*/

#define other_default “ “     /*other (0)*/

Are those(“bootHost”, “target”.. etcs) my vxworks boot parameters? I’d like to know how can I set vxworks boot parameters(user , ftp password , host name)

I hope you understand Iam new to the world of RTOS. Casual I’ve been trying to understand them for a week. From there to before he knew nothing of them.

I hope you can help.

Thanks and regards.
