I'm using GCC. I have no idea what that error means, but given that
it starts with L, perhaps it is a linker error...
Of course, you could use GCC to build FWU, and then Keil for your
code.

Mike, When you load "usb_fw" using ISP followed by "usb_app" via USB and
TNKernel, did the "usb_fw" got overwritten? I had this problem, so I thought I
need to ask.

No, since the firmware I load is located above usb_fw, it does
not get overwritten. You must locate your firmware to be loaded
via USB at 0x2000. Make sure your startup code for your firmware
does not include the reset and interrupt vectors, or these will
stomp on usb_fw. Check your map file to make sure you have
everything set to the correct addresses (the actual addresses
to be used would normally be set in the linker control file).

The changes are not necessary to make it work. I just didn't like
the way that the application ROM header was done, so I changed it.
Also, there were some hardware specific issues that needed to be
addressed for my target board. A hex file of my version wouldn't
help you much, unless I spent a lot of time documenting the changes.
Have you been able to get the usb_fw running, and recognized by the
driver? If you have, and you can't get your application to load
correctly, then there is something wrong with it. You must get the
ROM header to be located correctly or it will not work.
What specifically are you having trouble with? What doesn't work?

Mike, I downloaded the "firmware uploader" directly from TNKernel. From there, I
compiled both "usb_fwu" and "usb_app" using IAR full evaluation software without
modifying any of the firmwares. Both were compiled successfully. As mentioned
from previous post, the "usb_fwu" was downloaded using ISP and later "usb_app"
was downloaded via USB using TNKernel firmware loader program. When I tried to
re-download "usb_app" to test if "usb_fwu" still present, it's giving
"download failure error". I also tried to replug the USB cable, but to no avail
the same error popup.

You may not realize it, but since the usb_fw driver that you
installed on your PC is a trial version, it times out in
4 hours, and stops working giving that error. Reboot your
PC, and try it agian. Unfortunately, the diver is very
expensive if you want to purchase it...
If this doesn't work, try reloading usb_fw on your board,
just to be sure. I've not had any problems with usb_fw
being corrupted.
