iv compiled a cvs build of dctool and dcload as of todays 11/17/2005 with gcc 3.0.4 since thats the last version that iv seen that has libbfd installed
Now i need some testers :)
These were build under cygwin both serial and bba versions.
http://gpf.dcemu.co.uk/files/dcloadip104.rar
http://gpf.dcemu.co.uk/files/dcloadserial104.rar

both rars contain the dc-tool exe for cygwin under windows and the ip.bin and 1st_read.bin for dcload for both versions.

Here is a couple of dcload cdi image that havnt been tested yet, so beware of a coaster

never mind the cdi images, i tried the dcload-ip one and it just reboots my dreamcast, but this version of dc-tool-ip works with .elf files

Could someone build me a working image of dcload-ip please?

awesome, thanks very much. I had someone else try to build an image but it didnt work for him, dont know its my dcload-ip's 1st_read.bin or not.

Maybe if you rebuild it from my source with the older gcc 3.0.4 toolchain and run the the make-cd makefile that uses cdrecord to burn it?

again thanks Im still trying to find a gdb thats compiled for sh-elf so we can finally start doing some source debugging on the dreamcast.

just to report: using the dcload 1.0.4 serial i always need to upload it 2 or more times to make aes4all work, it wasn't happening with 1.0.3. I'm using the same configuration for both, with the default address (0x8c010000). is that normal, or do I need to configure something else?

Hum... It seems to dc-load-ip 1.0.4 be instable. But as i never used the BBA version i can't help you more. Sorry.:(

Oddly enough, it would happen with 1.0.3 sometimes, too.
