ADAM2

Adam2 was written by Texas Instruments and is/was used only with their AR7-SoC. Some sources seem to be available but there is no FOSS license! With the available sources you may be able to do stuff, but actually you have no permission to do it!

ADAM2 has two successors: EVA, done by AVM when they switched from Kernel 2.4 to Kernel 2.6 and PSPboot. The official successor is pspboot.

Adam2 supports loading an executable into RAM and executing it. In order to do so:

• convert your executable to the SREC format
• use srec2bin to convert the SREC file into the ADAM2 binary format

You can then upload your binary using the following procedure:

ftp> open 192.168.2.1
