Hi Wimpunk,
I wouldn't feel like an idiot, I spent all day on this, which is why i
wrote it down! I too got the same error you saw. I know it sounds
crazy but swapping the serial cable fixed it for me. I suspect that
the bytes are transferred with no sort of checksum or perhaps not even
flow control (forgive me if I conjecture wrong, almighty creator of
serial_blaster) and noise or loss of data caused it to fail.
As far as compiling it went, I used the cross-compiler on the CD, I
think from "crosstool-linux-gcc-3.3.4-glibc-2.3.2-0.28rc39.tar.bz2".
I didn't change any options or configurations in the makefile etc. I
simply used serial-blaster to get me to a redboot prompt, then
downloaded the files I downloaded from the TS ftp server...
Hope this helps, I know the frustration this causes!
Cheers
