I'm afraid this made no difference for me. I still get dll crashes. My
particular symptom is that if I make a 1 line change to legOS then download it,
it crashes straight away at the next dll. Even if I undo the change, then
rebuild & download legOS, it still crashes. I have one working copy of
legOS.srec which I'm gaurding carefully!
I ran a write/read test on all the memory regions malloc uses, and they all
passed. I've tried to track the problem down with cputw(). As far as I can
tell, the lnp interrupt routine (lnp_integrity_byte) gets called and returns
exactly once. I don't know what happens after that. Maybe the stacks not been
setup so it doesn't return from the interrupt routine? Maybe its getting
corrupted? Where is the stack setup & initialised? Any clues as to what next?
Any suggestions appreciated. Maybe then I can get on with the gdb stub!
