Hi all,

I´m trying to boot from a bios bootloader. I have a monitor connected
and a hyperterminal as well. When I start my target device, the
Windows CE logo shows and the progress bar advances until it reaches
about 99% and then stops. The hyperterminal is recieving the following
message sequence:

Microsoft Windows CE BIOS Bootloader Version 2.2 (Built Nov 21 2005)
INFO: code=0x4.
INFO: code=0x4.
INFO: code=0x4.
ERROR: code=0xC.
ERROR: code=0xB.
INFO: code=0x37.
INFO: code=0x4.
ERROR: code=0xC.
ERROR: code=0xB.
ERROR: code=0x8.

Anyone can help me out with this one? What's wrong here? the device
just hangs from there on.

Thanks in advance!

BR.

Looking at debug.h in the BIOSLOADER folders errors/warnings mean:

-File found
-File found
-File found
-Reached EOF cluster in FAT file chain
-Cannot read record information
-Trying backup image file
-File found
-Reached EOF cluster in FAT file chain
-Cannot read record information
-Failed to load BIN image

It looks like the loader is reaching EOF before it reads all the expected
bytes from the image file. I'll try to format the disk
