We are using RTEMS 4.10.2 + EPICS R3.14.12.4 for the beatnik and mvme2307 BSPs.
What
I've noticed is that the boot files created for the beatnik BSP are
more than twice the size of the boot files for the mvme2307. In some
cases, the boot file is too large for the "user download buffer" so the
tftpGet fails on startup. (This is fixed by loading the file into a different user defined buffer that's larger,)
I realize that these two BSPs use different PPC CPUs (740xx vs. 604), but I wonder why the great disparity in compiled file size.
