I found there were two binary mode problems.
(1) The first is a netscape browser's ftp.
Netscape did treat xxxx.bz2 file as ascii-text
in my environment.
So, I changed preference of netscape.
I'm not sure menu title of english version
because I use Japanese version of netscape.
If not correct, sorry.
(i) Edit -> preference -> navigator -> application
(ii) Add relation "bz2" and "tar" and "gz"
to appopriate application and MIME type.
I don't know correct MIME type,
so I use "application/x-zip-compressed".
* I don't have complete confidence in this method,
but done well on my occasion.
(2) The second may be a using mount command with "-b",
that was pointed out by Mr.Bart Veer who is eCos net maintainer.
So, I don't use "mount -b" to any mount point.
Then, I have been able to use eCos configuration tool.
Thank you.
