Hi Scott,
After reading your suggestion and someone else's suggestion to just 
jump to a elf image, I started really going through the code. A quick 
Borders inventory search yielded no local copies of eCos (no patience 
to read PDF) - so I just started getting a headache with the eCos 
code, i started  tinkering with linux Head.s and main.c. I think I am 
going to try the "easy" way first and use elf and modified linux 
driver files.....  The plung isn't so bad as I thought, just hate to 
figure out yet another chip's inner workings..... less time to play. 
Thanks for the answers.....
